There are a couple of things to do: 1. /etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs stop This will stop automounter services. But the service will probably come up again on reboot, so you would want to do: 2. chkconfig --level 2345 autofs off This will remove autofs from starting in runlevels 2, 3, 4 and 5. You could always kill the pid, but with alot of these daemons, a HUP signal merely means reread config file and restart... Also, if you're into the GUI config thingys, you could try 'serviceconf' as root (I dunno if it's included in FC4, it's on my FC5 box). Fedora is alright, but I wish redhat would include documentation on this stuff, because they change it seemingly with every new release. But chkconfig has been around as long as I have been playing with redhat, and I think it will almost always be around, so that is the way that I usually configure services.

[vox-tech] [Semi-OT] cygwin ssh and home directory
I'm setting up OpenSSH server under Cygwin on my WinXP box at work. My home directory on my system is a mounted folder: //someserver/users/billk When I open a normal cygwin terminal shell, I land at the mountpoint I have for that folder, my H: drive. In cygwin lingo, that's: /cygdrive/h/ However, when I try to ssh into my box (e.g,: ssh localhost from within a cygwin terminal), I get complaints that my home directory is inaccessible: Could not chdir to home directory //someserver/users/billk: Permission denied mkdir: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists Copying skeleton files. These files are for the user to personalise their cygwin experience. These will never be overwritten. /usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists /usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists /usr/bin/install: cannot create directory `//someserver/users/billk': File exists -bash: cd: //someserver/users/billk: Permission denied I've Googled and found references to SYSTEM (uh...?) and messing with cygwin's mount command, but I've had little luck, and am not sure what a good _permanent_ solution is. (In other words, when I come in tomorrow and reboot, I can simply ssh without manually mucking with things beforehand.) (Oh, and FWIW, I'm doing this on my desktop as a sandbox for something we'll be running on *ugh* a Windows-based server here at work.) Thx in advance! -- -bill!

Don't some desktops actually use helper daemons of their own, or somesuch, to achieve the desired automounting? Or do they all just use autofs at some level? I believe the way that those KDE/Gnome thingys work is that they see if autofs is running, then use it. If not, then the autofs utilities provided by the [gui-autofs-thingy] do not work. But in short, yes, I think the guis all use facilities provided by autofs. I could be wrong, but at least, when I turn off the autofs, the automounty-type thingys in KDE don't work anymore (e.g. the CD icon showing up on the desktop when I insert a CD into the drive, and Konqueror opening the contents of the CD)... The autofs thing is a problem for those that wish to burn CD/DVD. I set up the burning stations here at work, and turning off autofs is now part of my installation process. (I could use a custom kickstart to not install the rpms, but there are network drives that we sometimes mount via autofs, so I just turn off the service, b/c sometimes they do use autofs, and it's easy to start and stop for single use). Is that clear? Damn. That's a long explanation. How did I get so long-winded? :) --jan I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality.
