[PLUG] Understanding Autofs and Automount .


hello,
Was playing around with autofs and automount but couldn't get it to work.
Here's what I did:
Created a directory and a file to be automounted - /xhome/auto/foo.h
Added an entry to /etc/auto.master -> "/tmp/xxx /etc/auto.xxx"
Created the file /etc/auto.xxx with the entry:
"xxx -fstype=autofs :/xhome/auto"
Then restarted autofs.
Now when I do a "mount", it tells me that automount is running on /tmp/xxx,
but, when I go inside /tmp/xxx, I can't find the contents of
/xhome/auto in there.
Any ideas/hints/suggestions on what I might be doing wrong ?
Thanks,
