Hello, Trying to setup a simple direct map using nis and the autofs automounter:
automount -V Linux automount version 4.1.3-67 /etc/auto.master /- yp:auto.linux ypcat -k auto.linux /proj server2:/vol/proj/xx_proj This is documented in the readme file in /usr/share/doc/aufofs-4.1.3/README.direct When the autofs is started or restarted in the /var/log/messages I get : automount[25461]: cache_ghost: entry in yp:auto.linux not valid map format, key /proj If I use indirect mounts it works however direct mounts would be a lot easier for my users in that they will be able to see the directories in the mounted directory. The ghost function doesn't work well because it will only show the mounted directories or the directories that have been mounted since the last restart of the autofs. If I copy the file to the /etc directory it still has a similar error. aufofs-4.1.3/README.direct -- For example if we were using NIS we might have something like the map entries below. In the master map: /- autofs.global and in autofs.global: /nfs/apps/mozilla bogus:/usr/local/moxilla /nfs/data/budgets tiger:/usr/local/budgets /tst/sbin bogus:/usr/sbin and so on. _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list [email protected] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
