hi all
i finally got around to doing some autofs testing...
( my nano-howto-install-autofs howto )
cd /usr/src ; bzip2 -cd autofs-3.1.5.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
cd /usr/src/autofs-3.1.5
./configure
make
mv /usr/lib/autofs /usr/lib/autofs.prev
make install
#
insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/fs/autofs.o ( if needed )
/etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs stop
/etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs start
/etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs status
- check the log files..
/var/log/messages
- make sure the directory is exported on the other server
to the client you are importing into with autofs
autofs-3.1.5 installs and runs on:
