Description Ian Kent 2007-10-16 08:57:45 UTC
Description of problem:
autofs version 5 has been updated to provide the ability to
specify whether mount options given either globally or in an
entry in the master map should be appended to or replaced by
options given in individual map entries. A description of this
option hasn't been added to auto.master(5).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.55

Steps to Reproduce:
Comparison of the configuration file, /etc/sysconfig/autofs, and
the man page autofs.master(5) will show the option is available
in the configuration file but isn't listed anywhere on the man
page.
