Place the following style entry for your NAS Researching the vast Internet I found the suggestion of creating a seperate auto_afp file for Autofs to use so here is what I did. Now my MacMini is also giving me issues when it reboots. This was on an MacMini with 10.6, on my laptop with 10.7 I tried the same line and it gave me the permissions issue as abricko had. (hostname):(share) (mount_point) url (mount_point) 0 0 I was originally mounting AFP shares from my NAS by putting the following line in my /etc/fstab file Possible Fix that I found from different posts across the Internet. The only problem in doing this is if I disconnect from the network or the share drops it will not automatically reconnect and I'd have to run the command again. Yet if I use mount_afp or mount_smbfs it will obviously mount those shares as the user that is running the command, which is desirable. To test things further, I changed the FSTYPE in fstab from afp to cifs just to test and it still mounts the shares as the root/system user. I'm wondering if anyone is aware of an AFP or Automount or autoFS setting I can try changing on the iMac to get this working? Clearly something changed with AFP configuration in Lion, yet the upgraded MBP still funcitons as it did before, so some new default automount / autofs setting has changed yet it wasn't touched in the upgrade. No matter what I try I can't get it to automount those shares as a non system/root user. Now when the iMac boots the AFP shares are automounted by the system/root user and therefore are not accessible to any normal (admin) user on the iMac. I added the EXACT entries from the fstab file on the MBP to the fstab on the iMac. After upgrading to lion, the entries in /etc/fstab were still there and the shares are still functioning fine. The MBP was previously configured (in 10.6x) to automount a few AFP shares from my local NAS. The MBP was an upgrade from 10.6.8 to 10.7 the iMac was a full reinstall (erased the drive and booted off a flash installer I made for 10.7) I have two machines, an iMac and a Mac Book Pro.
