Doug,
I think I will end up following your suggestion. I will let folks know
how it turns out.
cheers,
ski

This gets into pretty strange complexity, but you could do something
like this with an executable mount map that calls a script that does a
ping of the host and only if the response time is < some threshold or if
the ip address of your host is in some range then echo back the remote
mount path otherwise don't echo anything and exit the script. The only
expected return from the executable mount map (see /net for example) is
the string value of mount options and server:/path. That's a pretty
flexible framework for achieving all kinds of things.

Subject: [lopsa-discuss] Question on autofs on laptops
Hi,
I use autofs to connect to several smb shares at work. This works fine
except for when i am not at work, then things get long delays if I try
df -h for example as it attempts to connect to each share in the map and
times out. Any ideas on how to set this up so it only will try to
connect to shares at work while I am at work (e.g. on a 10.x.x.x
network? Or perhaps there is a timeout parameter I can tweak a bit or
maybe a better tool than autofs.
cheers,
ski
