++Same behavior observed on RHEL 6.2, autofs-5.0.5-39.el6

ldif with comments

Description of problem:
We have "nested" automount maps and those worked under autofs-5.0.6-2.fc16 but now fail under autofs-5.0.6-4.fc16 with the message "validate_location: expected colon delimeter not found in location ou=auto.project,..."

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
autofs-5.0.6-4.fc16

How reproducible:
Happens every time

Steps to Reproduce:
The ldap setup is in an attached file.
  
Actual results:
autofs-5.0.6-4.fc16
automount[23977]: attempting to mount entry /var/phy/project
automount[23977]: validate_location: expected colon delimeter not found in location ou=auto.project,dc=phy,dc=duke,dc=edu
automount[23977]: failed to mount /var/phy/project


Expected results:
autofs-5.0.6-2.fc16
automount[24196]: attempting to mount entry /var/phy/project
automount[24196]: file map /etc/ou=auto.project,dc=phy,dc=duke,dc=edu not found
automount[24196]: mounted indirect on /var/phy/project with timeout 300, freq 75 seconds
automount[24196]: mounted /var/phy/project
automount[24196]: attempting to mount entry /var/phy/project/linux
automount[24196]: mounted /var/phy/project/linux

Additional info:

It seems that adding a ":" to the automountInformation field helps.

In my case "automountInformation: -fstype=autofs :ou=auto.project,..."

This is a duplicate of bug 772356.

Unfortunately, that bug has been marked private and I don't
want to change that as it was probably done for a specific
reason. Perhaps if you had logged the problem through the
normal support mechanism things would be different.

Anyway, I'm going to close this as a duplicate.
If you wish to be added to that bug then you will need to
log the call via support.
