It takes so long, that the autofs thing that Fedora does gives up and refuses to try again. If I open up the webserver interface to the NAS, rummage around the contents a bit, the drive wakes up, and then NFS automounts work fine. Another NAS is quicker at coming to life, and doesn't have that problem. If something has got its hooks into trying to use autofs (like a Nautilus browser window, or an application's file requester), this can really jam up the works on an automount that's not mounting. I'd like to know if I can tweak a timeout for autofs, I didn't used to have this problem. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.16.11-100.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 22 20:02:12 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
