Bug 44497

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.7 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.8 sun4u)

Description of problem:
I did not get auto.direct maps through nis (yp) and switched
over to a /etc/auto.direct file copied directly from a Sun
Server.  The results are the same, snooping showed now NFS
requests other than auto.home, using standard NFS mount
requests work okay.  The mount points exist as /groups/plasma
and /groups/geop.

/groups/geop    ent450:/export/data/groups/geop
/groups/plasma  ent450:/export/data2/groups/plasma

I have tried the old style syntax used in 'amd' also.




How reproducible:
Always
