Thank you! auto.isoimages -rw,hard,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 auto.development -rw,hard,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 auto.ccmdumps -rw,hard,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 auto.Groups -rw,hard,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 auto.proj -rw,hard,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 auto.home -rw,hard,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 -hosts auto.direct -rw,hard,suid,intr,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 ... and that explains why I'm getting an automounted /proj that I don't want. The only remaining issue is to work out where the above comes from, I know the name of the yp host machine so, presumably, it must be there somewhere. -- Chris Green
