From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.3; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko) Description of problem: autofs has this map: nbecker -fstype=nfs4 rpppc1.md.hnsnet:/disk1/nbecker When rpppc1.md.hnsnet is the client, it doesn't work correctly. Without -fstype=nfs4, this will result in the following mount: /disk1/nbecker on /home/nbecker type none (rw,bind) But with -fstype=nfs4, it isn't a bind mount, it is nfs4. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ls ~nbecker 2. 3. Additional info:
This is working as it should. When it is a local file system, autofs simply does a bind mount. If you don't want it to do this, then you can either stick with your solution (adding -fstype to the options), or you can specify -nosymlink.
You misunderstood me. With nfs4 it did NOT do a bind mount.
That is correct behaviour. If you believe it is not correct, then point to the documentation which states otherwise.
