My Solaris 9 boxes show a different behaviour: autofs resources do show
in the filesystem tree while still not mounted, as owned by root. Once I
effectively use them, they are mounted, and show with correct group/owner.
That may look odd, since mounts are performed only when needed, but
is convenient for the user, because he/her can see in advance the resources
he/her can reach. Is there any way to get such behaviour with debian etch?
Autofs should create the dirs if you add --ghost behind the entry in
/etc/auto.master
like this:
/foo /etc/auto.foo --ghost
