HI,
Ok worked autofs, hope this helps the idle issue. Overview of autofs can be found here:
for ftps:
/etc/auto.master:
/- /etc/auto.ftp.shares --timeout 60, --ghost
@richy The below autofs entry wasn’t working as it needed a space before the port (I’d only tested using 21 this morning) I’ve corrected this below now.
/etc/auto.ftp.shares:
/mnt/ftp -fstype=fuse,ssl,allow_other,no_verify_peer,no_verify_hostname,user=USER:PASWORD curlftpfs#192.168.1.13:3688
/mnt/ftp -fstype=fuse,ssl,allow_other,no_verify_peer,no_verify_hostname,user=USER:PASWORD curlftpfs#192.168.1.13 :3688
Try that and let us know how you get on.
As for the seeking issue, you try increasing the readfactor to 6 or 7; I wouldn’t go any higher though.
Thanks Tom.
