hi,
after changing auto_master, is there a less violent way than reboot to
have it reloaded?

thanks,

# automount -c

Perhaps also:

# automount -u

See "man automount" ...

Actually, just 'automount', as root, should be enough. You can use
'automount -v' to see what it's doing.

actually ‘automount’ did the trick, may the source be with you :-)

btw, mount -LL is a bit buggy.
