Bug#316378: autofs: Deadlock causes automount failure

[Martin Dorey]

I ran into this too and spammed the autofs list.  Joe Pruett points me at http://www.mail-archive.com/autofs@linux.kernel.org/msg05016.html, in which Ian Kent suggests disabling the autofs locking, providing that mount locks mtab properly.  Does Debian's mount do that? ------------------------------------- Martin's Outlook, BlueArc Engineering
