only a response from bertrand hutin
he says: try a truss -p <pid of automountd> to debug the problem

it is not suitable for me, so i send it to sun hotline, but now, i have
no response.
A possible workaround i'm using is to force mount of /home/<login> and
to stop automountd. So my users can login on the server now. And the
directories are never unmounted.

my original post:
automountd died everyfive minutes now... isearch a workaround:

can i put /usr/lib/autofs/automount in crontab to relaunch it?

automountd is only necessary on this server or for other nfs clients?

 

 

on a 250, solaris 8, i apply cluster of recommended patches of
Jun/12/03. When i
+reboot

this machine is nis master, all users accounts are automounted. Since
last
+night, automountd died unexpectedly

i try to restart it,buti can't do /etc/init.d/autofs stop because there
is some
+file systems mounted, so i do only:

scr-root% /usr/lib/autofs/automountd

and i see :

Jun 24 09:09:02 scr autofs: automountd OK

Jun 24 09:09:04 scr autofs: automountd not running, retrying

Jun 24 09:09:04 scr autofs: automountd OK

Jun 24 09:09:04 scr autofs: automountd not running, retrying
