The ability to have automount point to automount is something I use heavily as well. Otherwise I end up with many hundreds of nfs mounts on the server at a time. having hundreds of bind mounts on the client is preferrable. The old sun method of doing this was: host:/path/name:dir which would mount host:/path/name and then symlink dir. Now we' d use bind/loopback mounts. But that syntax has been gone a long time.
It doesn't seem like threading should inherently cause a problem. Each request should be a new thread and wait for the underlying mount (which might be recursive) to finish. _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list [email protected] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
