Akemi: I just found the below, in the Enterprise Linux Deployment Guide found in System > Documentation on the GNOME Desktop. In my box, everything in the /etc/sysconfig/autofs file is commented out. When I can use my daughters box (my wife is on it now), I will check to see that everything in that file is commented out there too. Lanny

IV.27.1.5. /etc/sysconfig/autofs

		The /etc/sysconfig/autofs file defines custom options for the automatic mounting of devices. This file controls the operation of the automount daemons, which automatically mount file systems when you use them and
		unmount them after a period of inactivity. File systems can include network file systems, CD-ROMs, diskettes, and other media.
	


		The /etc/sysconfig/autofs file may contain the following:
	

*


  					
  						LOCALOPTIONS="<value>", where <value> is a string for defining machine-specific automount rules. The default value is an empty string
  						("").
  					
  				
*

  					
  						DAEMONOPTIONS="<value>", where <value> is the timeout length in seconds before unmounting the device. The default value is 60 seconds
  						("--timeout=60").
  					
  				
*

  					
  						UNDERSCORETODOT=<value>, where <value> is a binary value that controls whether to convert underscores in file names into dots. For example,
  						auto_home to auto.home and auto_mnt to auto.mnt. The default value is 1 (true).
  					
  				
*

  					
  						DISABLE_DIRECT=<value>, where <value> is a binary value that controls whether to disable direct mount support, as the Linux implementation does
  						not conform to the Sun Microsystems' automounter behavior. The default value is 1 (true), and allows for compatibility with the Sun automounter options specification syntax.
