hi all, i have been using autofs for a long time now, using it to dynamically gather multimedia mounts using aufs locally and across local network.. however, ghosting is not supported for 'program' maps.. which makes sharing a autofs mount a bit odd..
example: server:/srv/multimedia -> automounted locally on server : uses aufs locally to mount all multimedia type directories on local storage client:/opt/multimedia -> automounted locally on client : uses aufs locally to mount all multimedia type directories on local storage and on automounted samba shares (also on server) when server automount is mounted on client, server:/srv/multimedia is mounted, but (as spec'ed) ghosting is not performed, giving an empty directory.. looks like the lookup_ghost on client does nothing as there are no cached entries from the mapfile (program) available.. same goes on server:/srv/multimedia.. could this be easily integrated into the automount source? i have been looking into it today, but it looks a bit quirky to just copy/paste the lookup_file.c:lookup_read_map into lookup_program.c:lookup_read_map (with all ancilliaries).. idea is to have the program maps return a complete 'file' map when given no key on the commandline, and to 're-use' the lookup_file.c:lookup_read_map functionality in the lookup_program.c:lookup_read_map do any of you have a direction into where i should start looking? thanks in advance.. best regards, tom urlings -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Best regards, Tom Urlings _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list autofs@linux.kernel.org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
