Q: Autofs not working in ML

I have a problem with Autofs in OSX 10.8

I have an afp file share set up on a ubuntu server

I map this share to a mac mini using finder menu “connect to sever”

This includes user and password and this works fine.

 

mac-mini:Volumes$ ls

Home Directory          Resources

Macintosh HD            firmwaresyncd.Hdawx3

 

files on server

mac-mini:Volumes$ cd 'home Directory'

mac-mini:home Directory $ ls

Disk_TV                 Network Trash Folder  

Disk_Video              Temporary Items         parity

 

and now to Autofs

master map file in etc

# Automounter master map

/Volumes/Resources auto_resources   

+auto_master            # Use directory service

/net                    -hosts          -nobrowse,hidefromfinder,nosuid

/home                   auto_home       -nobrowse,hidefromfinder

/Network/Servers        -fstab

/-                      -static

 

auto_resource file in ect

#auto_resources

media -fstype=afp afp://smith:58573655@20.168.0.249/home

 

mac-mini:etc $ sudo automount -vc

automount: /Volumes/Resources updated

automount: /net updated

automount: /home updated

automount: no unmounts

mac-mini:etc $

 

 

mac-mini:Resources $ ls

media

mac-mini:Resources $ cd media

-bash: cd: media: STREAM ioctl timeout

mac-mini:Resources $

 

Appreciate any ideas

permissions are correct in MM

 

Any help really appreciated

 

cheers

Mac mini, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)
