Hello all,
I have a server running samba for some windows clients. Now, one the same client network, I am setting up some thin clients that open their desktop session, in this case, the same server that's running samba.
Because I've got some windows and some thin clients running kde, samba is still necesary.
Some of the samba shares are common to all users so I'm trying to use autofs to mount them.
It works but. When I shutdown the server it freezes. It seems to be because the samba server is shutdown before automount. Does that sound right?
Yes. There are often problems with umounting taking a long time for servers that have gone away. The NFS side of things has improved in this respect quite a bit. I don't know for sure about smbfs though.
