in amd, when fileserver:/exports/[export1] is automounted, the files/dirs in [export1] are accessable but not viewable in a "ls" Any way to change this?
ex:
automount fileserver:/exports/dir1 to
/mnt/dir1
ls /mnt/dir1 ==> no files shown
cd /mnt/dir1/somedir and ls
works fine
mount fileserver:/exports/dir1 /mnt/dir1
ls /mnt/dir1 ==> shows somedir
cd /mnt/dir1/somedir and ls
works fine

autofs vs amd is like tinydns vs bind or exim vs sendmail
( its does it do the minimum you need or is it loaded w/ unused features
one thing that both is missing is "multi-homed servers"
if www1.foo.com is down, than it uses www2.foo.com or www3.foo.com
but at least one can do all that in other tools
its more critical for your home/user's servers on your local lan
use autofs ... simple answer
