Thanks Craig;

I am too worn out to start a new trip down learning lane tonight.

Hi;

Just today I started getting the following error message while
initiating (booting) Fedora 9.

        "Jul  7 19:24:30 CASE rpc.idmapd[1898]: libnfsidmap: Unable to
        determine a default nfsv4 domain; consider specifying one in
        idmapd.conf"

'man' and googled for rpc.idmapd, ibnfsidmap and idmapd.conf. They were
written in the usual computer explanatory Greek.  None of them exist on
my system.  Not quite clear who or what they belong to; recently yum
upgraded some applications.  Could one of those upgrades be looking for
something to configure??
        
----
scratch that...perhaps restart rcpidmap
      
Got the following;

]# service rpcidmapd restart
Stopping RPC idmapd:                                       [FAILED]
Starting RPC idmapd: rpc.idmapd: libnfsidmap: Unable to determine a
default nfsv4 domain; consider specifying one in idmapd.conf

rpc.idmapd: Unable to create name to user id mappings.
                                                           [FAILED]

I just don't have the energy to decipher all this tonight.

    
Gave it one last try: got it working.  Domain line was commented out.
Apparently I am now 'Domain = local.domain.edu'
  
The domain name does not matter so long as it is consistent on all clients and servers in your network, convention is to set it to your local domain name but is can be anything that parses as a domain name.
