Automount display with IP address instead of hostnames within /proc/mounts, 'df', or /etc/mtab

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Mounts display with IP address instead of hostnames within /proc/mounts, 'df', or /etc/mtab
  • After upgrading to RHEL 5.7, automounted directories are no longer displayed using the hostname of the machine they originate from. They instead are displayed with their IP address. This is seen within /proc/mounts, /etc/mtab, and the output from 'df' or 'mount'.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7
  • autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.143
  • autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.156
