Lowe Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I was messing around with my ftp server and i read somewhere you could mount other folders from different filesystems, anyway i did and now i don't know how to unmount them. 0_0 /home/lowe/Documents/lossless on /home/ftp type none (rw,bind) /home/lowe/Documents/lossless on /home/ftp type none (rw,bind) /home/lowe/Documents/lossless on /home/ftp/test type none (rw,bind) /home/lowe/Documents/lossless2 on /home/ftp/vgm type none (rw,bind) /home/lowe/Stored on /home/ftp/vgm type none (rw,bind) ^^ Those are the ones i want to remove, so i tried the command. umount /home/lowe/Documents/lossless Then it gave me this message. umount: it seems /home/lowe/Documents/lossless is mounted multiple times Any ideas?

Apoc Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 (edited) try: umount -f /home/lowe/Documents* This is an extreme case.. before this i'd recommend trying the mounted to folder, as in: umount /home/ftp Though i suspect this will cause you problems like the ones before it. You could manually remove them from the fstab (etc/fstab) but i am unsure as to how to get the mounts up-to-date with the new configuration.

If i remember correctly thats what i did last time i had that 'mounted multiple times' problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
