Fedora Core 3: 2005-282 Critical Autofs Mounting Issues Fixed

autofs is a daemon which automatically mounts filesystems when you use

them, and unmounts them later when you are not using them. This can

include network filesystems, CD-ROMs, floppies, and so forth.

- Fixed regression causing any entries after a wildcard in an

indirect map to be ignored. (bz #151668).

- Fixed regression which caused local hosts to be mount instead

of --bind local directories. (bz #146887)

* Thu Mar 17 2005 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-110

- Fixed one off bug in the submount-variable-propagation patch.

(bz #143074)

- Fixed a bug in the init script which wouldn't find the -browse

option if it was preceded by another option. (fz #113494)

* Mon Feb 28 2005 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-100

- When using ldap if auto.master doesn't exist we now check for auto_master.

Addresses bz #130079

- When using an auto.smb map we now remove the leading ':' from the path which

caused mount to fail in the past. Addresses bz #147492

- Autofs now checks /etc/nsswitch.conf to determine in what order files & nis

are checked when looking up autofs submount maps which don't specify a

maptype. Addresses IT #57612.

* Fri Feb 11 2005 Jeff Moyer - 1:4.1.3-97

- Program maps can repeat the last character of output. Fix this.

Addresses bz #138606

- Return first entry when there are duplicate keys in a map. Addresses

bz #140108.

- Propagate custom map variables to submounts. Fixes bz #143074.

- Create a sysconfig variable to control whether we source only one master

map (the way sun does), or source all maps found (which is the default for

backwards compatibility). Addresses bz #143126.

- Revised version of the get_best_mount patch. (#146887) cfeist@redhat.com

The previous patch introduced a regression. Non-replicated mounts would

not have the white space stripped from the entry and the mount would fail.

- Handle comment characters in the middle of the automount line in

/etc/nsswitch.conf. Addresses bz #127457.

* Wed Feb 2 2005 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-93

- Stop automount from pinging hosts if there is only one host (#146887)

* Wed Feb 2 2005 Jeff Moyer - 1:4.1.3-89

- Fix potential double free in cache_release. This bug showed up in a

multi-map setup. Two calls to cache_release would result in a SIGSEGV,

and the automount process would never exit.

* Mon Jan 31 2005 Jeff Moyer - 1:4.1.3-86

- Merge in map expiry code.

- Merge in patches from devel branch.

* Mon Jan 24 2005 Chris Feist - 1:4.3-84

- Fixed documentation so users know that any local mounts override

any other weighted mount.

* Mon Jan 24 2005 Chris Feist - 1:4.3-79

- Added a variable to determine if we created the directory or not

so we don't accidently remove a directory that we didn't create when

we stop autofs. (bz #134399)

* Sun Dec 12 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-68

- Fixed segfault when LDAP_SIZELIMIT_EXCEEDED is called and --ghost

is used, addresses bz #137220 & #142576.

* Tue Dec 7 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-60

- Fixed problem with autofs not finding all mount points in an ldap map.

bz #139548

* Fri Nov 19 2004 Jeff Moyer - 1:4.1.3-59

- Pass a socket into clntudp_bufcreate so that we don't use up additional

reserved ports. This patch, along with the socket leak fix, addresses

bz #128966.

- Add a space after "Starting automounter:". Addresses bz #138513

* Mon Nov 15 2004 Jeff Moyer - 1:4.1.3-52

- Make autofs understand -[no]browse. Addresses fz #113494.

* Thu Nov 11 2004 Jeff Moyer - 1:4.1.3-49

- Fix the umount loop device function in the init script.

* Mon Nov 8 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-45

- Added a patch to fix a bug which didn't test all hosts in a

replicated map to see which one had the lowest ping. (bz #130467)

* Wed Nov 3 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-41

- Fixed init script to not look for maps in the current directory

(bz #57008)

* Fri Oct 29 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-38

- Fixed ldap limit search patch to only issue warnings only

when ghosting is requested.

* Wed Oct 27 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-33

- Added a patch to fix the automounter failing on ldap maps

when it couldn't get the whole map. (ie. when the search

limit was lower than the number of results)

* Thu Oct 21 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-32

- Fixed the use of +ypmapname so the maps included with +ypmapname

are used in the correct order. (In the past the '+' entries

were always processed after local entries.)

* Thu Oct 21 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-31

- Fixed the duplicate map detection code to detect if maps try

to mount on top of existing maps.

* Wed Oct 20 2004 Chris Feist - 1:4.1.3-29

- Fixed a problem with backwards compatability. Specifying local

maps without '/etc/' prepended to them now works. (bz #136038)
