To debug this, use:
systemctl status home-michele-Documents-Tempestus.automount systemctl status home-michele-Documents-Tempestus.mount I can see two potential issues with your setup (after trying to replicate it): 1) You specify IdentityFile=~/.ssh/id_rsa, but globs are not necessarily processed, and even if they are, this will resolve to /root/, not /home/michele, as you probably intended. Better use the absolute path. 2) When running that command as root (i.e. the mount call you can see in systemctl status on the .mount unit), does SSH prompt you to accept the host key or do you have /root/.ssh/known_hosts set up properly? -- Best regards, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
