Thank you. I try this and up to now I failed to mount the remote
directory...

I added user in the options.

1- selinux came with some suggestions to add with semanage,
setsebool.... Without any effect (ie. when I try to mount the directory,
setroubleshoot always suggest the same operations to do if I want to
mount my directory and, if I retry to execute the suggested commands, it
replies that the stuff is already set... and, as usual with selinux, for
some commands you have a list of options to try without any explanations
about the meaning of these options! So you have to try the first, the
the second.... boring!)

2- I disabled selinux. And still it is impossible to mount the remote
directory: no messages in /var/log, I tried journalctl without any
success:journalctl -f returns nothing when I try to mount the directory,
and journalctl | grep automount returns " Got automount request for
/home/.../...", then: "Failed with result 'mount-start-limit-hit'".... A
very helpfull message indeed!

Who can light my candle?

Thank you.
