It is not in the automount.c code where I expected it
to be so that a call to automount -Dvar=value would work.
My auto.master file looks similar to the following:

/u      auto.u  --timeout 60

where auto.u is a yp map similar to:

home    -rw     fs:/home

Where should I put the -D option ?  In the
auto.u or auto.master file ? When I put it in
the auto.master file, the automount did not
recognize the option, leading to a perusal of
the automount daemon code where I could not find
any mention of it. I apologize if it is indeed
implemented.

It's implemented.
