Hi, I was happily using autofs 4.1.3 with mount 2.11y. The maps contained the proplist option (we share the maps with some OSF1 boxes), but that did not disturb.
for other reasons I had to upgrade mount to 2.11 (part of util-linux). Suddenly autofs will not mount anymore with errors like: Jun 25 12:25:50 heretic automount[12646]: failed to mount /home/thimm Jun 25 12:25:50 heretic automount[12648]: >> Unsupported nfs mount option: proplist Jun 25 12:25:50 heretic automount[12648]: mount(nfs): nfs: mount failure nukleon:/amd/nukleon/1/home/ag-linke/thimm on /home/thimm I tested mount -o proplist and I got the above error and the exit code was 32: # mount -o proplist nukleon:/amd/nukleon/1/home/ag-linke/thimm /home/thimm Unsupported nfs mount option: proplist # echo $? 32 OK, so I thought mount has become quite picky now, and downgraded. I retried the manual mount and got the same error & exit code! But autofs works properly again?!? For one I'd like to understand how autofs manages to workaround this error for 2.11y, and perhaps whether this can be used for mount 2.12, also. Granted, the true error lies in the configuration asking for unsupported proplist options, but since it had a nice and greceful error fallback until now, it would be nice to keep it.
