Maybe Juan is working on a better version ? In fact I don't know ( and Juan silence concerning this is disturbing ), but what I know is that we need a reliable and fully functionnal supermount, or else we should better remove it and use autofs. Why ? because many users installed mdk and when they have pb with their CDROMS/floppy, they complain. In my network I had to remove all CDROM and floppy in order to be peaceful. For some users I need the floppy and the CD and many times I had this complaint : excuse me, but my floppy is not working. It said unable to access floppy drive. bla bla bla. Mount/umount ? bad idea because all this stations ( and of cources the users ) where using windows before and having to deal with mount/umount ( even there are some applets ) will be a bad idea and a bad point for linux.
