I do it on HP-UX 10.20 all the time. Lots of stale NFS handles, or something just isn't working right? Stop and restart the automount daemons (/sbin/init.d/nfs.client), and that usually fixes it. The one or two times I made the mistake of trying that on Linux, I had to reboot the box to get it to work again. _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
