Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): This issue is present in all versions of autofs 4 and autofs 5 that I've checked. How reproducible: 100%. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure an NFS server to export the same partition in two different ways and export them. When you run showmount -e against that host you should see multiple entries like this: ~$ showmount -e snap-dev01 Export list for snap-dev01: /user 172.0.0.0/8 /tools 172.0.0.0/8 /projects 172.0.0.0/8 /user devtools /tools devtools /projects devtools The server doesn't have to be running Red Hat (or even Linux); it's not a server problem. 2. On a client (running Red Hat), attempt to access one of these partitions through the /net automount map as it comes configured by default: Actual results: ~$ ls /net/snap-dev01/tools/. ls: cannot access /net/snap-dev01/tools/.: No such file or directory Expected results: ~$ ls /net/snap-dev01/tools/. bin etc info man sbin dist include lib share tmp Additional info: I filed a bug against Ubuntu autofs4 back in 2007 and they did fix it there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autofs/+bug/111612 I've recently discovered that this problem still exists in the latest Ubuntu for autofs5 and I filed a bug there as well: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autofs5/+bug/912030 The bug is in the default auto.net handling script that comes with autofs, so I also sent a bug report upstream to the autofs maintainers at [email protected] but unfortunately that mailing list doesn't appear to be archived anywhere anymore so I can't give you a link. I've attached my patch to fix the problem here as well.

So, I think sanity only is sufficient for this one. The old /etc/auto.net is below: $SHOWMOUNT | LC_ALL=C sort -k 1 | \ Confirm the /etc/auto.net in new autofs-5.0.5-54.el6: $SHOWMOUNT | LC_ALL=C cut -d' ' -f1 | LC_ALL=C sort -u | \ Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autofs5/+bug/912030/comments/2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-06-20T14:46:51+00:00 errata-xmlrpc wrote: Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
