If you just write a cron job, you may find that the cache doesn't
exist when
the automounter needs it, as the cron job may have no yet run.
I feel distinctly unclean doing this, but I just added a couple of
lines to
/etc/sysconfig/autofs to create the necessary ticket and set the selinux
context appropriately.
Hi
I've got as far as creating the root ticket in /etc/init.d/boot.local
which seems to be ok as it happens before anyone hits the automounter.
On our system, that'll keep autofs happy for 10 hours so I suppose the
cron would need to be set to run at 9 hour 59 minute intervals. Normally
the client would have been rebooted by then, but I'd like to be able to
just forget about it.
Could you share your 2 liner autofs script? I guess it would be a kinit
-k <some key> but I'm new to all this.
Cheers.
