Me too @Matthias (as a java developer one would develop against a specification, not a product): I'd agree with you if we all took the blue pill (and lived in that fantasy world where everyone behaves sensibly). Unfortunately, most of us had to choose the red pill and live in the real world (as

I'm experiencing the (same?) problem with Lucid (and autofs-ldap). After rebooting, one time it works... another time not (until autofs is manually restarted) That does sound like an upstart race condition. Unfortunately, this is quite important for enterprise environments :-( I guess at the time
