The previous line was:

Apr 25 12:45:01 clapton mountd[466]: authenticated mount request from 
rayleigh.ruralradiosystems.com:828 for /mnt/home/bm (/mnt/home) 

suggesting it was a mount request. I have upgraded mount and nfs to
the versions from redhat 6.2 to see if that helps. I'm suspecting that
it's not autofs4 that's the problem but autofs4 makes nfs or mount do
something it didn't before which is broken.

Sounds great, I was wondering if the 2.2 patch was up to date with the
2.3 stuff. Thanks for all your effort on autofs4 :)
