i want to use autofs with my cdrom's, here my config files:
auto.master:
=================
/mnt/cdroms /etc/autofs/auto.cdroms --timeout=3
=================
auto.cdroms:
=================
brenner -fstype=iso9660,ro :/dev/sr0
dvd -fstype=iso9660,ro :/dev/cdroms/cdrom0
=================
but the timeout option has no effect, it is always is 5 minutes.
i have tried to run automount manually:
automount -t 3 /mnt/cdroms file /etc/autofs/auto.cdrom
and it works.
i think it's a bug in the /etc/init.d/autofs
At the least the line:
echo "$DAEMON $dir $maptype $map $mapoptions $localoptions" | sed -e 's/
/ /g' -e 's/ / /g'
Is missing $startupoptions.
This works for me:
echo "$DAEMON $startupoptions $dir $maptype $map $mapoptions $localoptions"
| sed -e 's/ / /g' -e 's/ / /g'
I would also recommend commenting out the echo to /tmp/debug lines.
