Remember me with my backfstype patch? Some people commented on it, I replied and then never got any answers since. Altough functional, my patch was questionned; the fix was not at the right place within the code (from a design/elegance point of view; technically it works great). As I explained, I have no knowledge of the overall architecture of Autofs and unfortunatly, I do not have the time to get deep into it. Can my patch still be applied in the main branch until it is moved into a more appropriate area of the code? Its still adds the new backsftype support, does not cause any problems, is very localized, and very usefull. I have been running it since the last 2 weeks without any problems. I am rolling it out in the production environment. Best regards, Hans Deragon -- Consultant en informatique/Software Consultant Deragon Informatique inc.
