Folks,

I have three AIX 5.2 workstations. When I reboot them, they do not
establish the NFS mounts defined in the local "/etc/filesystems". Mount
is set to "true". The NFS server is defined in the local "/etc/hosts"
files. It is also in the NIS host tables and is defined in DNS.

Any ideas?

Make sure that along with the 'mount = true' that you have 'vfs = nfs' and
'type = nfs'. The rc.nfs runs a mount -t nfs to mount all nfs type filesystems
with 'mount = true'

Since you converted, those items may not be there.

hth,
