I’ve 2 network drives on one subnet (nfs and samba). I would like to access them only if computer is connected to particular ssid (subnet).

I’m using gnome primarily. And files stops responding if mount points can’t be accessed. There is no real way to recover from this apart from connecting to network, unmount and then change network.

I would like those drives to be accessed by system only if they are reachable.

    I know autofs will work with nfs. Never used it with SMB. I’ve used it on a share of /home to specifically mount /home/user as needed (e.g., at login).

      I’ve used smb with autofs. Works a treat.

      Be sure you have nothing running from or accessing the mount constantly, of course – I forgot with a homedir – or it’ll never I mount.
