Okay. Thank you _so_ much. In case this message is going to be
archived, I next ran into the problem of this: My map had the options
"-fstype=auto,soft,intr", which produced the errors:
May 2 16:27:21 llama automount[2536]: attempting to mount entry

The problem here is that type "auto" doesn't work. Changing the options
to read "-fstype=nfs,soft,intr" cleared it up nicely. Mounts sleek and
fast, thanks!!

ps - If possible, instead of saying "lookup(yp) failed ... No such map
in domain", it would have been a lot more clear what the problem was if
it said instead "lookup(yp) failed ... No such map (/etc/foo.bar) in
domain".
Thanks again. I started this effort months ago and it's nice to have it
finally work.
