On both fedora3 and fedora5, I can't get the --timeout option on autofs to
do anything useful.
I saw a bug report on fedora3, but getting a newer release doesn't seem to
make a difference.

Is there anyway to "monitor" the timeout interactively from user space
(instead of "waiting" to see if it happens,
watch to see its counting down?)

To start with more information is needed.
See http://people.redhat.com/jmoyer and provide the information
described.
Enabling debug as described in Jeffs page will log the startup and
specify the timeout being used and log entries every time there is a
check.

It's worth noting that most times when users report that mounts aren't
timing out, the problem is another app periodically accessing the mounted
directory.
