Fedora is carrying this patch: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/autofs/blob/master/f/autofs-5.1.6-make-bind-mounts-propagation-slave-by-default.patch In addition to making 'slave' the default, it also adds a 'shared' mount option. -- Sam Morris <https://robots.org.uk/> CAAA AA1A CA69 A83A 892B 1855 D20B 4202 5CDA 27B9
