I had tried autofs5 before to try and resolve without success. This time I purged autofs first.
I kept the delivered version of auto.master and added my one line to it (the difference from my previous attempt was not to remove the +auto.master line). Restarted and the mount umounted after the default 5 mins. So yes, autofs5 works for me now! -- autofs4 doesn't timeout cifs mounted shares https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/502262 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to autofs in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
