Hi,

I'm playing a bit with the automount daemon - amd.
Using the following map
/defaults
opts:=grpid,intr,nodev,rw,soft
*            host!=${key};type:=host;rhost:=${key};fs:=${autodir}/${rhost}; \
             ost==${key};type:=link;fs:="/"

using amd to mount "/net"

Works fine, but amd blocks when i do "cd /net/deadhost" - takes about 30
secs to get a "No such file or directory". In this time _all_ requests to
/net freeze. I've played a bit with timeouts, but nothing seemed to help.
Looks like amd is using long time with many retries for trying to mount
"deadhost" with nfsv2/udp. I didnt find any option to turn this of.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

	Andre
