$ cat /etc/default/autofs

However, autofs doesn't seem to be working:
$ /etc/init.d/autofs restart
Stopping automounter: done.
Starting automounter: /mediadone.
$ cd /media/cdrom
bash: cd: /media/cdrom: No such file or directory
$ ls /media/cdrom
ls: /media/cdrom: No such file or directory
$ mount /cdrom
$ cd /cdrom
$ ls
a c pi pr

Assuming I didn't know what noauto meant, I commented out those entries in
/etc/fstab
$ cat /etc/fstab
/dev/hda3 / ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /floppy auto user,noauto 0 0
#/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 2
/dev/sda1 /mnt/fob vfat uid=1000,gid=1000,user,noauto,noatime 0 0
$
and autofs still doesn't work.
Any suggestions as to what might be wrong?
