Greetings all,

How can I configure autofs to mount exactly as if I had mounted the
filesystem manually?

Here's a example of manually mounting an NFS share:

# mount -o ro 127.0.0.1:/tmp/shared.out/ /tmp/nfs.share/

# cat /tmp/nfs.share/hw.txt
hello, world

# mount | grep nfs.share
127.0.0.1:/tmp/shared.out/ on /tmp/nfs.share type nfs (ro,addr=127.0.0.1)

# umount /tmp/nfs.share/


Here is the same process using autofs:


# grep nfs /etc/auto.master
/-    /etc/auto.nfs

# grep nfs /etc/auto.nfs
/tmp/nfs.share/ -ro   127.0.0.1:/tmp/shared.out/

# /etc/init.d/autofs start

# cat /tmp/nfs.share/hw.txt
hello, world

# mount | grep nfs.share
/tmp/shared.out on /tmp/nfs.share type none (rw,bind)


Although the NFS share is mounted to the correct mountpoint via
autofs, the share is mounted read-write even though the options in the
map file /etc/auto.nfs specify read-only (-ro).  According to the
docs, this should work[1].  What am I missing?

Using Ubuntu 10.04 with autofs5.  Any pointers appreciated.
