try the following on each host:
/etc/auto.master looks like:
/hosts /etc/auto.hosts --timeout 60
/etc/auto.hosts looks like:
host1 -fstype=nfs host1:/shared_data1
restart autofs
-----------------------
and try ( per prev other posts)
/etc/auto.master:
/net /etc/auto.net
/etc/auto.net
* -fstype=autofs,-Dhost=& file:/etc/auto.netsub
/etc/auto.netsub
* ${host}:/disk/&
have fun
