Dear Chuck! Here's what i can do for you: As mentioned above i put a line "/etc/init.d/autofs start" into /etc/rc.local but this did not work anymore since some updates last week, so I put a "echo 'ifconfig` >> /tmp/bla.txt infront of that line and i saw from that that the ethernet interface did not have an ip-address at that time, of course the ldap communication then does not work so good... As I haven't concerned myself with upstart yet I cannot tell how to solve this properly, however I have a quick and dirty solution to this, I put the following line into /etc/rc.local;
(while [ ! -f /var/run/autofs/_home.pid ]; do /etc/init.d/autofs start; sleep 10; done) & As you can see this while-loop tests if the pid-file for autofs exists and if not it keeps trying to start it in 10 seconds steps. This does work but a proper solution would of course be preferable, so I hope you can get this upstart messup fixed somehow...:) Your's, firebug -- autofs doesn't start on boottime and "ghost" option is being ingnored on HP machines https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383084 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
