Sorry everyone. Perhaps I'm not being very clear here. Basically, hierarchical entries in the maps that only are one directory deep work. More than that croak. Thus given:
/etc/auto.master:
/dir /etc/auto.dir/etc/auto.dir
d2 \The entry for mount point /dir/d2/x would work, while the entry for /dir/d2/y/z fails.
/x machine:/x \
/y/z machine:/y/z
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks,
J

(autofs-4.0.0pre10-1). I've aliased autofs4 to autofs in modules.conf.
Clearly autofs is basically working in that I can now do hierarchical
mounts, thus:
yes... first thing to do is fix redhat so that it works...
and especially tighten security on it
( usually lots of things are broken out of the box )boreas -rw,hard,intr \
/disk1 boreas:/mydisks/disk1 \
/disk2 boreas:/mydisks/disk2
Works. However, I'm trying to get the auto_net map to work, and I'm
having problems. I've nailed down the problem to the fact that maps
with multi-level mount points fail. Thus:
boreas -rw,hard,intr \
/mydisks/home boreas:/mydisks/home
Fails. Since most machines export disks more than one directory deep
(e.g. /export/stuff) this will kill auto_net, since
/net/host/export/stuff would fail. Anyone know why this is dying for
me? It's critical to get this up to move forward.
maybe i am missing something but i am assuming that boreas
is exporting /mydisks/disk1, /mydisks/disk2 and /mysidks/home
and all that should all work ...
all machines should be able to see all three dir tree on breaas...
thanx
