similar to: disable autofs timeout

Hi! I'm having trouble accessing Samba shares via autofs. Let me begin by saying that I can access the samba shares directly using smbclient without any trouble. For example: smbclient //Matsa/Pisi works fine. I first started out by copying a config line from an older system (redhat 7) that has in its auto.misc: (all on one line, of course) pisi

I have an issue with CentOS 6.2's autofs/automount. When I issue "service autofs start (or restart)" the automount daemon starts as expected, however, I am not able to access any of the exports nfs directories; but if I shutdown the automount daemon and start it by just issuing "/usr/sbin/automount", I am able to access all of the nfs directories. If the system reboots,

Hi all! I'm trying to set up autofs on my C7 netbook so I can automount a cifs share (actually two) from my NAS box, and because when I'm not at home I don't want it attempting to mount it. so I've read several howtos on it, including the one on the CentOS Wiki. but what I've got isn't working right, and I don't know why. I'm trying to follow the

Alle, I'm following the instructions in section 19.3.3.2 of the docs @ http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Deployment_Guide/s2-nfs-config-autofs-LDAP.html, but I cannot add the following entry in LDAP: dn: automountMapName=auto.home,dc=subaru,dc=nao,dc=ac,dc=jp objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto.home After looking at the schemas in /etc/openldap/schema,

Hi! Thanks to some of you I got autofs set up on my C7 netbook for mounting local cifs filesytems. Now I want to do something on my C7 desktop machine, that seems to me to be a little different, and I"m not sure how to do it. I have an external RAID1 box that attaches via USB. It is/will be nearly always /dev/sdc, but being USB I can't guarantee that it will always be found there.

I'm migrating from C7 to C8.? I'm currently using autofs, but alas autofs has been dropped in C8 for the AMD automounter. I have some very ancient knowledge of AMD, I used it when it was first introduced many years ago on Solaris and moved to Sun's automounter when it was introduced. So now it's back to square one. I used automount2amd to convert one of my existing maps,

Hi all, I'm trying to setup this scenario on NFS and autofs on Centos 4.3: - useradd nfstest on an NFS server (192.168.1.247) - Setting up this NFS server /etc/exports: /home/nfstest 192.168.1.252/255.255.255.0(rw,sync,no_root_squash) - useradd nfstest on a client machine (192.168.1.252) - make sure that the uid and gid are the same on the server and the client - setting up

Hi all, I would like to use AutoFS on Samba but I encounter difficulties with ldap entries. I have already add the Automount Schema from the Wiki (https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_schema_extensions) but I can't add "auto_master" and the folowings leaf. I tried : dn: automountmapname=auto_master,dc=MYDOMAIN automountMapName: auto_master objectClass: automountMap

Was trying to use autofs on ubuntu and mounting a samba shared failed. Then, i came across a note that 'unless you need to authenticate to cifs' -- wish I could find the exact quote now. The point is autofs fails to mount a windows server share. I can mount the share using mount.cifs but it fails with autofs. So I just thought I would check to see if anyone has pointers on using autofs on

In my use, we continue to use autofs for automounts of CIFS volumes, because as best I can tell, systemd doesn't support using the request-key infrastructure to use a user's kerberos ticket to set up the automount. -- Jonathan Billings <billings at negate.org>

Why not just use autofs and have it mounted on demand? jh

I'm having an issue with autofs mounting cifs using kerberos, on machines joined to an S4 domain controller. Both hosts and S4 server are CentOS 6, and the DC is running samba-4.1.11 from sernet. Autofs is getting it's maps from LDAP from the DC. This part works fine, automount -m shows: Mount point: /share source(s): instance type(s): sss map: auto.share public |

Greetings - [SIGH: I hit the "Send" button instead of "Attach". Here's Take 2...] Whilst playing with getting quotas from NFS-mounted filestores I've just discovered a slight problem with src/lib/mountpoint.c I had things working on a Solaris 10 test machine which had the mailstore mounted 'normally' using an entry in /etc/vfstab. However when I changed

One problem I have with custom CentOS 6 installation is that NIS auto.* maps are not available. According to boot.log, ypbind starts before autofs, but when I login to the machine, the maps are not available until I issue a service autofs restart. Any pointers on what to check?

hi, I use automounter to mount to many hosts /net/<hostname>/dir When the hostname is unavaliable it seems NFS gets stuck. I would like to set a NFS timeout (say 60 secs). If not available then error. I need to use hardmount but is there such a thing as NFS client timeout? -- --- Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.--

Hi, I am still trying to figure out the best settings for Samba and Kerberos with autofs. My setup so far works good, users can log in on their computers using AD credentials, and they can access network shares with AD credentials as well. This works perfect. Also I notice that some Kerberos ticket is created upon user login, which allows the users to access a Samba share without entering the

Hi all, I have an NFS server on our network sharing out package files for Puppet to install to all and sundry. The clients access said NFS server via an automounter configuration (I don''t want the packages share mounted all the time, only when installing packages) As a result, installation of packages depends on autofs... So I have the following: service { "autofs": ensure
