Topic

Updated autofs packages that fix several bugs and add two enhancements are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

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

These updated autofs packages include numerous bug fixes and enhancements. Space
precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed
to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 Technical Notes for information on the most
significant of these changes:

https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/6.5_Technical_Notes/autofs.html#RHBA-2013-1690

Users of autofs are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
these bugs and add these enhancements.

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
