Topic

Updated autofs packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The autofs utility controls the operation of the automount daemon. The automount
daemon automatically mounts file systems when in use and unmounts them when they
are not busy.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, when mounting new mounts, the automount daemon stopped responding.

This occurred due to an execution order race during an expire thread creation.
This update refactors the code handling the expire thread creation and the
problem no longer occurs. (BZ#1006163)

Users of autofs are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258
