Description of problem: Historically the autofs wildcard map key has always been "/". However, many users of other industry standard automount programs seem to have configurations that work use "*" instead. Linux autofs should also work in this case. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.54 Steps to Reproduce: TBA.
Created attachment 230591 [details] Patch to allow for older schemas that allow "*" as a key value.
