Hello,

I am running an older SuSE SLES9 release.  It ships with autofs-4.1.3 
with a 2.6.5 kernel.

We are having a number of issues with the automount daemon dying on 
certain mounts, failing to be responsive, etc in a rather large 
environment. 

We would like to upgrade to autofs5 but the kernel shipped ( 2.6.5 ) 
doesn't include support for autofs5 or a great number of patches that 
have gone into 2.6.16+ kernels.

Is anyone maintaining a current autofs patch set against older 2.6.x 
kernels?

Michael
