I have a stock RedHat 6.0 x86 machine that I just installed the autofs rpm to.
I am having problems automounting smbfs shares. NFS works fine, devices work
fine, and "mount -t smbfs" works just fine. For some reason autofs can't figure
out how to mount smbfs. Here is the entry from my map and here is the snipit
from the logs. If anyone has any input that would be great. I have never tried
doing smbfs filesystems in autofs until now. The smbfs side seems to work okay
and autofs seems to be okay, there must be something amiss in this distribution.
I haven't tried building the latest and greatest, I am trying to keep this
as close to RedHat's dist as possible. The kernel is 2.2.5-15 and autofs is
3.1.3.
autofs map entry:
winbox -fstype=smbfs ://winbox/c
error in /var/log/messages:
Aug 3 13:46:00 fw automount[24816]: attempting to mount entry /win/winbox
Aug 3 13:46:00 fw automount[25390]: cannot find mount method for filesystem
