But even then, I fail to get a working autofs setup.

Jun  9 16:04:13 trash automount[3457]: master_read_master: no mounts in table
Jun  9 16:04:46 trash automount[3505]: do_mount_autofs_indirect: failed to mount
autofs path /misc
Jun  9 16:04:46 trash automount[3505]: handle_mounts: mount of /misc failed!
Jun  9 16:04:46 trash automount[3505]: master_do_mount: failed to startup mount
... etc, repeated for each autofs mount
Jun  9 16:04:46 trash automount[3505]: master_do_mount: failed to startup mount
Jun  9 16:04:46 trash automount[3505]: master_read_master: no mounts in table

this is a bog-standard NIS/autofs setup which has worked by default forever.

Can you post output from "lsmod" immediately after you get this message.

Ian, doesn't this sound like the selinux issue?  If you do "setenforce 0", and
then load autofs, it will probably work.

Yep. It does.

Joe I'm just about to get onto the selinux issue.
Sorry for the inconvience.

I can confirm that doing "setenforce 0" then starting autofs works fine, FWIW.
