[LUG] Linux Mint 20 and autofs [trying to mount NFS shares on NAS]

 

Hi All,

The little so-n-so is not working, despite following various instructions online to the letter regarding editing auto.master and creating a second file; mine is called auto.nfsdb. Mint is Ubuntu based btw. It doesn't help that for some reason advice varies on how to set it up. That includes how to start the autofs service in the first place. To my mind there should be /one/ way to set it up not variants.

nfs-common and autofs are installed.

Host is 192.168.1.3 [or is named Zeus] and has three shares on /volume1

DEMETER, HESTIA and PERSEPHONE

Thoughts appreciated.

Kind regards,

Julian
