Hi, I noticed many mails about /net already, but I can't get it to work yet.. Basically all I want (for starters) is to mount any random NFS server, I don't really care about permissions / NIS, etc. First I tried the autofs-3.1.7 that came with my distro, and things like /auto/cdrom or /auto/some-wellknown-nfsserver worked fine, but /net - like functionality didn't.
I am running linux-2.4.16-pre1, and I just installed autofs-4.0.0-pre10. quite up to date I would say :). I have Slackware 8.0, so /autofs script complains about wrong distro, etc. My question is, basically, is this type of functionality supposed to work, or is it still quite experimental? Also, if the autofs script is redhat/debian specific, can I run some automount commandline manually to accomplish the same? Thanks for any hints, Christoph
