Only problem with that is on boot up on my laptop, my eth0 tries to start before card services (pcmcia) and it fails (delayed) then my nfs tries to mount and fails because eth0 and card services have not been initiated.

ok, how do I use autofs? I browsed to /usr/lib/autofs, which is where any reference to a locate autofs pointed and there are a bunch of .so files and a autofs-ldap-auto-master file. Ok, I just pulled up the man file for autofs, and it is saying something about auto.master config file. I will read it and see if I can figure it out, and send this out to you guys and see what you think. thanks<br>
