rmdir: Device or resource busy

I was reconfiguring autofs and when I tried to rmdir one of the directories, I got "Device or resource busy"... ok, so let's just run 'fuser -v /dir'. To my surprise, it returned nothing. Alright, back to good old, lsof and..... nothing.

Strange. Looks like a bug.

So, I had to un-reconfigure autofs and put everything back the way it was. Once I did that, I restarted autofs and fuser -v correctly identified the rogue dir as being held open by autofs.

Now, all I did was, shutdown autofs, removed the rogue dir and reconfigure autofs once again.

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I'm on RHEL 5 and I finally have taboot executing after a lot of effort troubleshooting. It's a terrible show stopper bug. I yum installed it from the EPEL repo and you would think that since you yum installed the command, it would just work right? Well, not with taboot.

The problem was, the syntax in taboot was coded for python v >2.4 but it wants v2.4. So, I had to go replace all of the "as e" errors with ",e".

Apparently, this "as e" vs. ",e" has to do with the version of python.
