If "/etc/auto.master" contains: /home yp:auto.home --timeout 60 then "/etc/rc.d/init.d/autofs start" complains: sh: yp:auto.home: command not found Closer investigation suggests that the problem is at line 59 of the init.d file: if echo $map | grep -- ':' ; then ^ should have >/dev/null 2>&1
This should be fixed in autofs-3.1.4 and later, in Raw Hide. Please try this version and reopen this bug if you continue to experience this problem.
