darn. next suggestion, which I only alluded to in the last email: if ! grep -e "ntfs-3g" /etc/filesystems then echo "perhaps do the following" echo "echo ntfs-3g >> /etc/filesystems" echo " and let autofs use auto for the fs type." else echo "darn, even editing /etc/filesystems" echo "will not help." fi of course this assumes that the lack of an entry in /etc/filesystems means mount will not try that type, and that you can use the same gid umask set for both FS types. -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list autofs@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
