Just to point out that this is "/share", not "/home". You might have set

I remember that I have to specify nfsv3 on the client/nfsmount side to

In your config,

This should be fine ...

Hi, again!
As sometimes happens, soon after I posted my help request, I found the
answer! It turns out that 'gkrellmd' was using the statfs() call
periodically on all of the mounted filesystems: this activity meant the
kernel would never expire those mounts (like my cd) under autofs.

Hopefully it just mounted the autofs filesystem on top of / and did
not actually delete it. Hopefully. When filesystems are mounted on
hi mirek
i bet the user "elf" cannot mount a floppy either
but "root' can
root# mkdir /mnt/floppy
root# mount -t auto /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
df and ls
elf# mount -t auto /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy
df
if "elf" cannot mount it ... good
to fix automounting of the floppy for users...

Hi, I tried it both, but it still does not work
I did:
cd /
mkdir mounted
then edited configs
here is my /etc/auto.master:
/mounted /etc/auto.mnt --timout=5
here is my /etc/auto.mnt:
floppy -fstype=auto,umask=000 :/dev/fd0
then

then
cd ~elf

hi mirek, caleb
the mount point for autofs should be a directory NOT shared
by others... otherwise... some dirs might disappear for a few minutes
i like /.autofs for anything autofs related
and /.amd for anything amd related
and /mnt reserved for users/system to play with
/etc/auto.master
Understabable. I've found the autofs documentation to be a bit hard to
follow also, but I did eventually figure it out. You can't have a mount
point of "/", so use something convenient like "/mnt", however, you can
then set up a symlink so that it looks like it's at /. Try this:

- it automatically unmounts it when you no longer need it
- minimize corrupting it/erasing it accidentally

I found that with the debian autofs init script (/etc/init.d/autofs),
the timeout option wasn't parsed properly unless it was specified like
so (YMMV):
/.autofs/etc/auto.misc timeout=600
hi robin
donno if its been answered or not... ( been away from email for a week )

you need to fix /etc/auto.master and /etc/auto.misc
( auto.misc is something that is referenced from auto.master
