How to disable use of bind mounts in autofs when the fs is exported from the local system in RHEL
Issue
- When autofs is configured with an entry for an NFS filesystem that is exported from the local system, it will bind mount the exported directory instead of mounting it through NFS. Is there a way to disable this functionality so its always mounted via NFS?
- I want to disable use of bind mounts when the fs mount is local.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 or 6
- autofs
