I've read through the documentation for systemd automount, and there must be something missing.

I added noauto,x-systemd.automount to my NFS entries in /etc/fstab, but when I access the directory in Nautilus, nothing happens.

My understanding is that it should mount the export when the mount point is accessed. Is that correct?

The exports mount just fine using the mount command, or by selecting the side-pane entry in nautilus.

Yes, that should work. What is the full line of your fstab entry?

After adding the line to fstab you need to tell systemd about the change, by either

 systemctl daemon-reload

or by rebooting the machine.

Add the entry to /etc/fstab, and it will work.

Instead of noauto,x-systemd.automount, try `defaults in the third-last space.

HTH.
