fedora
Calendar Grey June 19, 2006
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Autofs 5.2.0-15 introduces improvements for optimized directory management alongside vital security upgrades.
Updated package.

Summary

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.

- Change LDAP message severity from crit to degug (bz# 183893).

- Add patch to ignore the "bg" and "fg" mount options as they

aren't relevant for autofs mounts (bz# 184386).

- Add patch to fix key and mapent length check.

* Tue May 30 2006 Ian Kent - 1:4.1.4-25

- add patch to fix white space handling in get_best_mount

function (bz #163999).

* Thu May 4 2006 Ian Kent - 1:4.1.4-22

- add patch to use "cifs" instead of smbfs and escape speces

in share names (bz #163999, #187732).
