mount after server reboot

Probably you are talking about an nfs mount. Add a line like this in your /etc/fstab file:


nfs_server:/export /mount_point nfs rw,hard,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 0 0

thx reply ,

how about another method --> add a mount script to /etc/inittab or /etc/rc3.d/init.d , is it OK ? thx

[Matti_Kurkela · Accepted solution]

Adding a script to /etc/inittab is generally not recommended, as errors in that file can make the server inaccessible after a reboot. Of course you can do it if you insist.

Using a mount script (either in inittab or in /etc/init.d) is technically possible, but it is a non-standard solution which might confuse anyone else who might be administering that machine. It usually means that the junior sysadmin will call you when you're supposed to be relaxing on your hard-earned vacation...

Shalom,

Yes, you can use autofs.
