similar to: USB, AutoMount & VNC

Hi! I'm trying to figure out how to make automount do its job when nobody is logged at the console and the user access the server by VNC. Does anybody knows how to make CentOS automount USB Hard Drives / Pendrive when accessed by VNC? Thanks! Guy Boisvert, ing IngTegration inc.

I have a headless CentOS 5.3 box running Xen 3.3.1. The DomU (domcont) is running off a DRBD device and the network bridge (br0) is running over a bonded ethernet link. All network interfaces are running fine and the DRBD devices replicate over their respective links. The DRBD device that I am trying to boot off is /dev/drbd1 and is set to Primary on the Dom0 that is running this DomU.

Does Automount/autofs automagically run e2fsck? If so, how does one disable this? We have an external USB connected 2TB hard drive setup to automount. Sometimes e2fsck gets fired up, I think from Automount. I have this line in the automount config: /backupdisk -fstype=ext3,nocheck :LABEL=BACKUP I believe this should prevent Automount from running e2fsck, but it still runs it. (We

To this point, whenever I've plugged a storage device (flash drive, mp3 player) into a USB plug, it's magically mounted and I get an icon on my desktop. I've just got a card reader and it doesn't automount. I can mount it manually with "mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/temp" and that works fine. I would prefer to have it automount and give me the desktop icon. Unfortunately, I

In brief: Is there is anyway to trigger the same automount mechanism, that X appears to use, on unmounted USB drives that are already connected? Background: I've got a C6 server with default desktop GUI installed for the sake of the onsite admin. There is a bash script I wrote that runs every night checking for specific folders on any drive and dumps data into it. To ensure fs integrity, I

I have an FC6 dom0 running on a headless server. I want to install a CentOS 4.4 domU with a console accessed using vnc from a remote machine. I *think* I should be able to do this from my understanding of the documentation. I''ve configured a domU to boot from an ISO image to do the CentOS install and run xm create. netstat on dom0 shows there''s a listener on 0.0.0.0:5900, but

Hi, I am using 5.1, Until yesterday morning when we had a power cut for 9 hours [no proper UPS], the automount of USB drives worked properly. Now when I connect any USB drive [hard drives & USB sticks], they show up in dmesg, and they are being properly recognized, but I have to mount them by hand. Any suggestion? -- Thanks http://www.911networks.com When the network has to work
