Step #6 of "Steps to Reproduce" was wrong. Correction: Do not use df as this will access the remote filesystem and prevent the automounter from unmounting. Instead, check /etc/mtab directly to see if the path is still mounted as follows: grep /misc/sub/some_valid_exported_path /etc/mtab Also, it seems to me that it would be very simple for the automount daemon to inclue the appropriate "--timeout" flag when it spawns each of its children with the "--submount" flag. This would be a quick, easy, and presumably safe fix. I'll look into this. Autofs4 takes care of this, and we'll be moving to this in the next update. An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2004-284.html |
