Re: Data backup- (udev problem)

[Angelo Moreschini <mrangelo.fedora@xxxxxxxxx>]

thank you  Bob,

I wont try your suggestion, but I have not installed autoff on Fedora 21 :
------
[angelo_dev@localhost ~]$ sudo systemctl status autofs.service
[sudo] password for angelo_dev:
● autofs.service
   Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
   Active: inactive (dead)
-----

So before to do something wrong I would ask you how I can install it (I didn't find help in this way..)

It is a autofs repository for Fedora ?

thank you

Angelo
