I've got tail -f var/log/messages open at the moment, and see a bunch of stuff to do with automount as below. Sep 9 17:06:55 localhost automount[1798]: create_udp_client: hostname lookup failed: No such process Sep 9 17:06:55 localhost automount[1798]: create_tcp_client: hostname lookup failed: No such process Sep 9 17:06:55 localhost automount[1798]: lookup_mount: exports lookup failed for .directory Sep 9 17:06:55 localhost automount[1798]: create_udp_client: hostname lookup failed: No such process Sep 9 17:06:55 localhost automount[1798]: create_tcp_client: hostname lookup failed: No such process Sep 9 17:06:55 localhost automount[1798]: lookup_mount: exports lookup failed for .directory It appears when I open my home directory (konqueror), and work my way back through the filesystem to /. As soon as I reach / the messages above are printed out. I don't use NFS, or Samba, and they are stopped in services, so if I disable autofs (which I presume will stop this printout) , am I likely to see any problems when I bootup? Perhaps things that autofs deals with, but I don't know about. I use FTP, and SSH on my LAN btw. Thanks for any advice.
