I have two different machines each running very recent linux kernel but
different vintages of redhat / fedora original distribution. I have set up
an automount of one of my company's ldap-controlled automounts on each.
On the new distro, it works fine.
On the older distro, it doesn't, although I can manually issue the mount -t nfs
commands that automount is trying to issue and they are successful.
I've pasted comparison of debug output of each system from automount -d : (I
have replaced host and dir names with ???) -
it seems that old-distro automount is looking for some characteristic of the
remote hostname from somewhere and not finding it, and giving up before
attempting the mjount command even though it has gathered all the mount command
syntax and could (I guess) try issuing it. But doesn't. And as mentioned,
the mount command succeeds when I type it in.
if anyone could suggest the cause and remedy for the old-distro failure I'd be
grateful
