I believe that the lab is broken. Following every step, copy pasting even, does not give me the right result.
And what makes me suspect that it is broken is that after running the grading script it return success.
@HugoPfeffer The lab is not broken.
1. an automounter file system remains unmounted until the mount point is accessed, which causes the file system to mount immediately, and to remain mounted when the file system is in use. When all files on the file system are closed, and all users and processes leave the mount point directory, the automounter unmounts the file system after a minimal timeout.
2. An indirect mount is when the mount point location is not known until the mount demand occurs. Although indirect mount points appear to exist, the autofs service creates them when the mount demand occurs, and deletes them again when the demand ended and the file system is unmounted.
This lab is for indirect mount. Please see the below screenshot for details :
