sorry about that. it's clear in my mind :-). this is on centos 4 and 5. using almost standard autofs5 (5.0.1-0.rc2.88) on both. on centos 4 i have applied a patch from the list to correct the problem with finding local ip information with lots of interface for bind mounts to function correctly. standard kernel as well. _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list autofs@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
