I don't think adding this to if-up.d is robust. There could easily be a timing issue here where the facility that distributes your maps, which also cannot be started until the interface comes up, will not be started before the autofs script asks for them. For example, with NIS, after the interface comes up then we bind to a server, THEN the maps are available. But the binding can take a few seconds (especially if you're broadcasting for a server rather than using a hard-coded one) and in the meantime, autofs will try to start and fail to get any maps just as it does now.
