hi, i'm just start autofs on my desktop machine. the main reason for this because smbfs (and also cifs) use a very high network load on my system and i use these file very seldom, so it'd be very useful if after a few minutes these fs can be umounted. unfortunately it seems that neither cifs or smbfs not nfs volumes are never umounted. if they mounted once they will remain there forever. it seems automount has the right option: -------------------------------- root 2007 0.0 0.0 1792 696 ? Ss Nov16 0:00 /usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /smb program /etc/auto.smb root 2041 0.0 0.0 1788 696 ? Ss Nov16 0:00 /usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /net program /etc/auto.net -------------------------------- i try to find out which file can hold /net or /smb but neither fuser nor lsof can show anything. is there any way to find out something about the status of automount? eg which files are used what is the timeout when the timeout fill be left etc? what can be wrong? any tip? my system is fedora core 4 full update: kernel-2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 autofs-4.1.4-5 nfs-utils-1.0.7-12.FC4 samba-client-3.0.14a-2 thank you for your help in advance. yours.
