I am running automount to automount a /misc directory and am getting an 
error. It's a default configuration used in my valinux 420 machine and
from reading the man pages, I can not figure out why it isn't working.

1) automount is running, a ps ax | grep automount shows:

311 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/automount --timeout 60 /misc file /etc/auto

2) /etc/auto.master config file with the following:

/misc   /etc/auto.misc  --timeout 60

3) /etc/auto.misc contains the following:

kernel          -ro,soft,intr           ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux
cd              -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom

Yet when I cd to /misc/kernel or /misc/cd, I get the following error:

bash: /misc/kernel: No such file or directory
bash: /misc/cd: No such file or directory

Clearly, automount does not seem to be monitoring that directory. 
I know the ftp site and directory exist because I can ftp there manually.

Any help appreciated.

Gary
