Hello,

I can not get autofs to work. I have installed autofs with

   bash% apt-get install autofs

And, then just tried to use the default /etc/auto.master and
/etc/auto.misc files which come with the package:


 /etc/auto.master:
 /-----------------------------------------------------------------
 | # $Id: auto.master,v 1.2 1997/10/06 21:52:03 hpa Exp $
 | # Sample auto.master file
 | # Format of this file:
 | # mountpoint map options
 | # For details of the format look at autofs(5).
 | /var/autofs/misc     /etc/auto.misc
 | /var/autofs/net      /etc/auto.net
 \-----------------------------------------------------------------


 /etc/auto.misc:
 /-----------------------------------------------------------------
 | # $Id: auto.misc,v 1.2 1997/10/06 21:52:04 hpa Exp $
 | # This is an automounter map and it has the following format
 | # key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
 | # Details may be found in the autofs(5) manpage
 | 
 | kernel               -ro                                     
 |ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux
 | boot         -fstype=ext3                                    :/dev/hda1
 | removable    -fstype=ext2,sync,nodev,nosuid                  :/dev/hdd
 | cd           -fstype=iso9660,ro,sync,nodev,nosuid            :/dev/hdc
 | floppy               -fstype=auto,sync,nodev,nosuid          :/dev/fd0
 | local                -fstype=ext3,ro,soft,intr,nosuid        :/dev/hda5
 |
 | # Key "local" is added by me.
 \-----------------------------------------------------------------


When I then first go to the mount-point /var/autofs/master, and thenthe configuration 
files
seem to
try:

   bash% cd kernel
   bash: cd: kernel: No such file or directory

Either I am doing something horribly wrong, or else the packaga seems
to ship with broken configuration files (but from my understanding of
the manual pages the config files are correct - so ...?).

Any tips appreciated.
