I also have this problem under Ubuntu 10.04LTS. Running the automounter manually (thanks onkara), on attempting to change to an NFS-mounted directory, I noticed:
>> mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking. >> mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd. On starting statd ("sudo start statd") and autofs ("sudo start autofs"), the automounter is now working. Neither autofs nor statd appear to be in /etc/rc?.d/ -- autofs doesn't work with lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/573919 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
