I just set up autofs on our servers in our office. One issue is that direct mounting does not work in Linux: eg. in auto.master: /- /etc/auto.direct in auto.direct: /foo -fstype nfs,rw,xxx server:path But, I can achieve this using yp. While I have seen some references to using NIS(yp) to mount home directories, I have not found a decent online reference either in the Red Hat documentation tree or otherwise. The main directory tree I wanted automounted works fine, but I have 1 direct, and also /home. I can do /home easily with: * -fstype=nfs,rw,nosuid,soft server:/home/& (actually, I would probably use sync and hard as options). But, I think for /home, using yp would be a better way to go, but I only have 10 users, and we would be adding or removing maybe 1 or 2 per year. I only have 1 directory I want automounted, but there is no problem putting that into fstab on the clients. -- -- Jerry Feldman <[hidden email]> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
