I have been looking at howtos and googling for a couple of weeks and can't seem to find the answer to fix an autofs problem.

I am using RHEL4 with a 2.6.9 kernel.


under RH7.3 and a 2.4.x kernel I had a /etc/auto.net file with the following entries:


dragon -fstype=smbfs,rw,credentials=/opt/ dragonlo,gid=10009,fmask=660,dmask=770 ://10.1.1.223/anyuser sting -fstype=smbfs,rw,credentials=/opt/ stinglo,gid=10009,fmask=660,dmask=770 ://10.1.1.35/Export


This worked fine to mount /net/dragon and /net/sting.


Upgrading the machine to RHEL4 with a 2.6.9 kernel

I can still mount /net/dragon but not /net/sting. The difference between the two machine is that dragon/10.1.1.223is a Mac running MacOS 10.4.x and sting/10.1.1.35 is a WinXP machine.

A little more googling yielded that I should replace smbfs to cifs and as a result some of the other option names changed.

so now the entry for sting looks like this:

sting -fstype=cifs,rw,credentials=/opt/ stinglo,uid=500,gid=10009,file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770 ://10.1.1.35/ Export

but it still is not working.

Can someone tell me what is wrong and/or point me to documentation to get this to work.
