With "amd", we had no trouble automounting our Network Appliance NFS
server on Redhat 5.2. Here is our "amd.conf" file:
/defaults fs:=${autodir}/${rhost}/root/${rfs};opts:=nosuid,nodev
* rhost:=${key};type:=host;rfs:=/
But with "autofs" on RH 6.0, we cannot get it to automount the Network
Appliance NFS server. Manual NFS mounts of the appliance work.
Autofs will automount other Linux boxes and Solaris boxes.
Here is /etc/auto.master:
/net /etc/auto.net --timeout 60
and here is /etc/auto.net:
* &:/
Here is a demo of what happens:
[rick@pepper /etc]$ ls /net/fs1/local
ls: /net/fs1/local: No such file or directory
[rick@pepper /etc]$ ls /net/fs1/
ls: /net/fs1: No such file or directory
[rick@pepper /etc]$ root mount -tnfs fs1:/local /mnt
[rick@pepper /etc]$ ls /mnt
cyclic cygnus images mail.sendmail.cf mailhub.sendmail.cf mirror mis src
[rick@pepper /etc]$
Does anybody have any idea how to make "autofs" work as well as "amd"
did with the Network Appliance?
Please reply to me as I am not a subscriber of this list.
Thanks in advance,
