Hello,

I am not sure if this relates to kernel or to autofs, so sorry if I am wrong. I also tried to google for the problem, but I have found only questions and no solution.


I use autofs-4.1.3, gentoo-dev-sources kernel 2.6.9 compiled with automounter v4 on Gentoo. I have problems with automounting hidden Windows shares - e.g. my /etc/autofs/auto.work includes:


n -fstype=smbfs,users,uid=knizek_m,gid=users,credentials=/etc/samba
What's this^^^^^
/credentials_argon ://ffile01/Home$

My /etc/autofs/auto.master includes:

/mnt/auto.work /etc/autofs/auto.work --timeout=60


When try ls /mnt/auto.work/n, the file does not exist. Syslog reads:

Jan 26 12:18:40 n1005 automount[10417]: failed to mount /mnt/auto.work/n
Jan 26 12:18:40 n1005 automount[10420]: >> Usage: mount.smbfs service mountpoint [-o options,...]
Jan 26 12:18:40 n1005 automount[10420]: >> Version 3.0.9



I'd like to see the log entries prior to the "failed to mount" message with the --debug option on the entry in the master map please.


This looks like a parsing problem. But I would have expected escaping the $ to have worked.

... cut on purpose ...

Jan 26 12:18:40 n1005 automount[10420]: mount(generic): failed to mount "://ffile01/Home" (type smbfs) o
n /mnt/auto.work/n
Jan 26 12:18:40 n1005 automount[10420]: failed to mount /mnt/auto.work/n



I tried to change the line in auto.work to ://ffile01/Home\$ but it did not help anyway.


When I use fstab or mount manually, it works. Also, mounting normal Windows shares (not ending with $) and local devices like cdrom and usb works fine with automount.

Is there other way to go?

Thanks,
Milan
