All, On our main file server, all our home directorys are automount points. So /home isn't a real filesystem area, it points to a bunch of different home areas based on the auto.direct table. Example:
/home/user1 mounts from --> /export/home1/user1 /home/user2 mounts from --> /export/home2/user2 /home/user3 mounts from --> /export/home2/user3 /home/user4 mounts from --> /export/home3/user4 I could explain more but I am sure most everyone knows how automount works in basic... Ok, so I want to do a read share out for all the users home areas... I could just set up a share one /home, but then since its an automount, /home/user1 wouldn't show up until user1 did something on the file server that keyed the automounter to kick in. Is there a way to have samba cause the automounter to kick in and mount it? I was actually suprised it didn't in the first place, but maybe its due to the way explorer browses, meaning it determintes that the path doesn't exist and doesn't even try to do it. -grant -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
