I'm trying to implement the --ghost option for a particular group of automounted items but it doesn't seem to work.
This is on a SLES 10 system. The auto.master entry reads: /clamscan/master/ /clamscan/mapfiles/clam-av.map -t 0 --ghost and the status from autofs shows: Checking for service autofs: running Configured Mount Points: ------------------------ /usr/sbin/automount /clamscan/master/ file /clamscan/mapfiles/clam-av.map t 0 ghost Active Mount Points: -------------------- /usr/sbin/automount /clamscan/master/ file /clamscan/mapfiles/clam-av.map t 0 ghost but when I go to the directory specified in the map file: abinodji -fstype=nfs,soft zebulon:/clamscan/scanlogs/abinodji aitkin -fstype=nfs,soft lookout:/clamscan/scanlogs/aitkin which if I have this right should be /clamscan/master there are no directories showing ingram:/clamscan/master # l total 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 7 12:48 ./ drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jan 7 12:32 ../ unless I navigate to it like I would expect in an on-demand fashion ingram:/clamscan/master # cd aitkin ingram:/clamscan/master/aitkin # l total 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 17 16:42 ./ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Jan 7 12:51 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 205 Jan 7 00:35 aitkin.rootdir.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11 Jan 7 00:01 lastscan.txt ingram:/clamscan/master/aitkin # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on --snip--- lookout:/clamscan/scanlogs/aitkin 10325728 313984 9487232 4% /clamscan/master/aitkin So what do I do? According to everything I've read, the ghost option should display all the mountpoints specified in the map file but it does not appear to work. Any input appreciated. -J ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
