Hi, Does setting the autofs timeout=0 create a permanent mount? What I'm trying to do is get the best of both world; 1) Have a persistent mount so that users can use autocompletion. 2) utilize the benefits of autofs so that when an NFS resource becomes unavailable, the system doesn't hang. I've tried a timeout of 0 but it doesn't seem to work.

I am trying, but failing, to migrate an openSUSE Samba server from Samba 3.4.3 on openSUSE 11.2 (old) to Samba 3.5.7 on openSUSE 11.4 (new). Samba 3.4.3-3.8.1-2508-SUSE-SL11.2 Samba 3.5.7-1.17.1-2505-SUSE-SL11.4-i386 I have a simple smb.conf to share a directory (shareddocs) with a few users with Linux logins. My smb.conf is identical on both servers. I?ve added log level = 3 and a temptest

I discovered that 'dnf upgrade' doesn't actually upgrade to the latest versions of packages unless you also supply the '--best' flag. This also changes update -> upgrade, since apparently 'dnf update' is deprecated. --- customize/customize_run.ml | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/customize/customize_run.ml

I am having difficulty with Windows shares mounted with smb on my linux machine. The mount directory will not have write permissions for anyone, no matter what. The mount directory that I use is /home/samba. It has 0700, or drwx------ permissions when it is not connected to Samba. It is owned by the user jhall, and the group root. When I mount it, if I use dmask 0777, I get dr-xr-xr-x. If I use

Hello, I've been having a problem copying files from a Samba directory, mounted by cifs so that it's accessible from a Linux machine. The autofs service is used to mount the Samba directory on /samba/public/name with mount options "-fstype=cifs,guest,file_mode=0664,dir_mode=0775". If I do this: touch /samba/public/name/foo # create an empty file cp

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

We have about 800 CentOS 5.2 servers and our university. We use NFS being served from over 10 NetApp frames. We use autofs for to mount up our partitions. There have been times where we can't cd into the directory. It says the directory does not exist. On some servers it works but on others it does not. Typically we restart amd and autofs to resolve this issue. But sometimes it does not even

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,

I have the following nis map (auto.facvs) * -vers=3 &:/disk1 Which allows hosts that have /disk1 exported to be mounted to /facvs/$hostname It works fine, but on Centos4, it allows me to cd /facvs/foo (where foo isn't a real host out there) I find it has mounted my local /disk1 as /facvs/foo. It seems to be ignoring the key in the map pertaining to the host if it's not a valid

Hi, I'm using Autofs and LDAP for mounting my home directories via nfs. In general, everything seems to work fine. However, I have one small problem. If I reboot my server using autofs while my LDAP server is down, I get the following error message in my logs: automount[3358]: bind_ldap_anonymous: lookup(ldap): Unable to bind to the LDAP server: (default), error Can't contact LDAP

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
