Description of problem: In the past, autofs has chosen an overloaded server instead of a lightly loaded server. In order to debug such problems, it would be useful to have more insight into what the autofs daemon is doing. Some simple logging statements in the replicated server selection code should do the trick. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): autofs-4.1.3-199.2
