Hi all,
I have some problem with NFS and/or NIS, which don't understand
really.
The setup is as follows:
FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE is NFS and NIS server.
The client is Solaris-2.6.
I can login, read write and so on, the home directory 
was mounted through automount and I also tried to mount it 
manually without automount. 
The problem:
I can't run top, sysinfo, lsof (programs that access /dev/kmem)
It takes to netscape about 5 minutes to startup, but after that 
I can't close it.

Another thing, when the home directory is on solaris everything 
works fine. Also, when I login as root on solaris and then make
su - user and then run top, and other programs, everything works.
NetBSD on the same computer instead of solaris works OK.

There was no problems when the client was solaris-2.5.1

Any clues ?
TIA,
--Yuri.
