Re: Leave autofs alone?

Hi Bjørn,

sorry I don't have much experience with autofs. I will have to configure some to see what is happening there....

I don't think we want generally ignore all autofs mounts, but we have just to be sure that GVfs won't cause automounting of them. Can you please file a bug report for GVfs with info about your configuration?

I won't tell you how you should write the systemd unit, however, I have some tips what more you can do. You can also try to use different mount paths. More-or-less only mounts in /media, $HOME, and /run/media/$USER are handled, so path change may have same effect as x-gvfs-hide. Or you can probably set also custom udev rules. See the following document:

New problem. I need better control over error handling, specifically
I'd need to have RestartSec= and Restart= in the .mount unit. The
problem is that those options are not available in /etc/fstab
(systemd-fstab-generator only parses few select "systemd" options). So
I decided to try using native systemd unit for the autofs + sshfs
mounts. Now where do I put the "x-gvfs-hide" mount option? I mean, I
still have that option in the systemd .mount unit, but it has no
effect. (And .automount units have no "Option=" directive.)

I'm stuck.

Best regards,
Bjørn Forsman
