You can't upgrade autofs while it's in use -- it's just part of the upstream design (it can't be restarted, so an upgrade is pointless). You can set the appropriate variable in /etc/default/autofs if you want to upgrade but defer restarting until a better time (ie. manually), though. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
