Ian, list.
Fedora Core 2
/usr/sbin/automount -V
Linux automount version 4.1.4
I am running automount with /usr/sbin/automount --ghost -v --debug
uname -r
2.6.7 / 2.4.31
I have "yp" autofs maps that are 2 directories deep. For eg.
/projects/map1 /projects/map2 etc and then I mount
different projects under them, project1 project2 etc
/projects/map1/projectA
/projects/map1/projectB
/projects/map2/projectC
/projects/map2/projectD
/projects/map3/projectE
/projects/map3/projectF
/projects/map4/projectG
/projects/map4/projectH
Sometimes on these machines, users find that their jobs are killed because
they were unable to "cd" into /projects/map1/projectA for eg.
They see something similar to
irn:/projects/map1/projectA > ll
total 0
?--------- ? ? ? ? ? dir1
?--------- ? ? ? ? ? dir2
irn:/projects/map1/projectsA > cd dir1
dir1: No such file or directory.
If I look at the messages file at the same time, I see entries like
Oct 24 16:44:36 irn automount[2202]: attempting to mount entry

Right after these messages I also see

It will do this for all maps, but the correct map which is "map1"
The actual automount process for "map1" is running and after a few
minutes/retries things come back to normal. Sometimes they dont and I need
to reboot this machine/restart automount for that map.
Is something getting incorrectly parsed and being sent to automount ?
Thanks
