1320.0. "Can t mount..." by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Thu Mar 09 1995 18:52

Subj: 	Can't mount...

Is it just me, or is something screwed up with automount?  I can't mount
the ptos backing tree because /share/secret/build won't mount for some
reason -- though it seems to be mounted on my production machine.

Any hints or workarounds for this welcome.

A lot of people seem to be having trouble with automount lately. If you're
running it you shouldn't have to mount ptos, it should mount itself, however
if automount is hosed, short of rebooting, you'll need to kill it with -TERM,
then restart passing the ARGS from your rc.config file.

Thanks, but I tried all that; in fact, I have even rebooted several times
to no avail.

I'm more inclined to think that the mount maps are hosed; for instance,
look at this line in auto.direct:

/submits.dsk2 -ro ${NET}secret:&/submits.dsk2   /submits.dsk1 -ro ${NET}secret:&/submits.dsk1

This looks odd to me; it seems like it's saying that /submits.dsk1 is
secret:/submits.dsk1/submits.dsk1 and there's no reference to the
/share/secret/build directory (ptos links to /share/secret/build/submits.dsk1).

Anyhow, fix this, and you might just fix automount.

Meanwhile, I'm forced to chuck automount out the window, which will make
ODE an even bigger pain than usual.
