Hi All,

I'm currently using RedHat 4 Enterprise Workstation 4 U4 for a small lab.

I've got a Fedora Core 6 File Server with an NFS share, and I'm simply exporting the /home directory on that server for the RH4Ent clients to auto.home their /home directories.

When I restart autofs I get:

failed to load map: "/usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /home[WARNING]c/auto.home"

So it will not automount the /home directory.

On the server I'm simply using corresponding users and groups. In a test environment using all Fedora Core machines, it works without an issue.

Also, if I issue the command:

[root@tuw5 etc]# mount lfs1:/home /home/

It works without a problem and the NFS share on the LFS1 server is mounted to the local RedHat Ent 4 workstation.

What am I doing wrong?



Here are the files:

[root@tuw5 etc]# more auto.master

# This is an automounter map and it has the following format

/home /etc/auto.home --timeout 300
