I have not recreated the directories, every time I reboot they get deleted along with the fstab entries, hope this is enough info for now...Thanks for the quick reply. Why would the entries in fstab get deleted, because there is no media in the units?
If the entries in /etc/fstab get deleted after reboot, it is probably because you have the "kudzu" option indicating that kudzu may modify those entries using /usr/sbin/updfstab.
See the manual pages for kudzu(8) and updfstab(8). The manual for kudzu
(8) may indicate kudzu(1) instead. The "owner" option is probably inappropriate when not using kudzu or console.perms and should be replaced with either "user" or "users". The "owner" option indicates that the owner of the device may mount and umount instead of allowing only root. The "user" option allows any user to mount and only that user or root to umount. The "users" option allows any user to mount, and any user may umount even if another user originally mounted.
See the manual pages for mount(8), fstab(5), and console.perms(5).
