Hi, Is it just me, or is it simpler to change auto.master to: /misc /etc/auto.misc --timeout 60 /mnt /etc/auto.jnana --timeout 60 and leave auto.jnana as it was? I've been wading through the documentation for a couple of days, and I'm still not sure about how the configuration files work. Maybe I'll write some when I'm done. ;) Cheers, Geoff -----Original Message----- From: Srinivasa T.N. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 June 2001 6:24 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: H.

What could be the problem? Regards, Seenu.
