At a guess, someone or something is trying to access a file/directory called '.git' in your automount directory. You might want to try and go something like: cd /mntpoint/thisdoesnotexist where /mntpoint is name of an automount directory (e.g. defined in /etc/auto.master) and see if you get a log message saying something similar about 'thisdoesnotexist' James Pearson
