Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
* Previously, the LDAP module lacked the ability to lock the server list. When used in SASL authenticated environments, this could cause autofs to fail if the credential for the connection became stale. The LDAP module can now lock a server list, and autofs refreshes and retries failed SASL connections. Autofs therefore performs more reliably when used in authenticated environments.

Comment 5 Ian Kent 2009-05-04 04:35:52 UTC 
RHTS test bugzillas/bz481139 in the autofs work flow can
be used to verify this issue.

This change was included in autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.105 but the
latest CVS build is recommended for testing.

OK, I didn't know to do this.
Will do in the future.
