- How does one get the automounter to notice that you have changed
- auto.master?
-
- As best I can tell, you have to actually kill and restart the
- automounter (yuck). Is this really true? If so, it orphans any
- existing auto-mounted file systems, so they are not unmounted until
- the next reboot. So you may as well reboot the machine anyway.
- Please tell me it ain't so.

- Thanks
