Description Bill Quayle 2016-03-15 18:25:57 UTC
Description of problem:
When the default.target is graphical.target, and the user home directories are autofs/NFS-mounted filesystems, NetworkManager.service should be required before the graphical desktop is presented.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
CentOS/RHEL/Fedora > 7.0

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load OS
2. Configure autofs client or fstab-based NFS mount of user home directories
3. Enable graphical desktop

Actual results:
User is unable to login to desktop, because the desktop is presented before the network and automount/nfs become available.

Expected results:
User is able to login to their nfs-mounted home directory.

Unfortunately it is up to you to enable NM, network.service, or systemd-networkd. Systemd only provides synchronization points, so those services are started in correct order.

Please provide exact systemd version which exhibits the problem. Did you change default configuration in any way (well except enabling autofs)? If yes, please outline changes you've have made. Also attach output of "journalctl -b" after you reproduce the issue.
