Thanks... and I got that all squared away.

I created /etc/auto.nfs and tried that forumulation. Restarted
autofs. Nothing gets mounted under (now simplified to /projects in
auto.master) /projects when I do ls /projects/d0 or /projects/dv
There is a bit of a pause with `ls /projects/dv (or d0) but then I
get:
ls: cannot access /projects/dv: No such file or directory
To clarify my above comments:
root # grep -v '^#\|^$' /etc/auto.master
/projects /etc/auto.nfs --timeout=180
+dir:/etc/auto.master.d
+auto.master
root # grep -v '^#\|^$' /etc/auto.nfs
* --fstype=nfs4,rw,soft,intr 191.168.1.42:/projects/&
I also tried this:
root # grep -v '^#\|^$' /etc/auto.nfs
d0 --fstype=nfs4,rw,soft,intr 191.168.1.42:/projects/d0
dv --fstype=nfs4,rw,soft,intr 191.168.1.42:/projects/dv
A `ls /projects/dv' pauses maybe 10 seconds and returns:
ls: cannot access /projects/dv: No such file or directory
One question... am I supposed to create the directories
/projects/dv /projects/d0 ?
It appears from the instructions I've seen that .. no I am not to
create those dir... just /projects/. however, I did try it both ways
and can report that nothing gets mounted in either test.

Not sure what you mean by `give you'. Do you mean to use as is?
I tried:
root # grep -v '^#\|^$' /etc/auto.master
/projects /etc/auto.net --timeout=180 (Note: It now says `auto.net')
+dir:/etc/auto.master.d
+auto.master
Made sure auto.net is chmod 755
Changed (in auto.net)
opts="-fstype=nfs,hard,intr,nodev,nosuid"
#opts="-fstype=nfs4,hard,intr,nodev,nosuid,async"
To:
#opts="-fstype=nfs,hard,intr,nodev,nosuid"
opts="-fstype=nfs4,hard,intr,nodev,nosuid,async"
Restarted autofs
Again, nothing is mounted under /projects/
A `ls /projects/dv (or d0)' returns immediately with output:
ls: cannot access /projects/dv: No such file or directory
And once again .. to test nfs:
mount -t nfs 192.168.1.42:/projects/dv /nfs/dv
ls /nfs/dv (Yup... lots of files under here)
I'm not able to see what I am doing wrong...
