Are you using some sort of referral? Sorry for not being 100% precise, I needed to check back with the administrators of the file server: There is no automounter involved at all. At the server side, there is simply a hierarchy of ZFS partitions (because a per-user quota has to be mapped to per-partition quotas, so every user got a separate ZFS partition) mounted below the NFS-exported directory. > Also, can you check to see if cachefilesd is still running?

Yes, the process keeps running fine. > My guess is that only your 'automount point' volume is being cached, and > directories (and referrals) aren't actually cached. Yes, that was also my guess. But why - is this a limitation we can work around, or does this need fixing in the kernel, or is it a fundamental problem?
