It does work, but it has only supported this syntax for one version.   What
does the system log say?  What kind of map is this coming from?  A file?  NIS?

Title: does multimounting work (or what am I doing wrong)

I installed linux-2.3.99-pre8; turned ON kernel automounter version 4 support; turned OFF kernel automounter (doesn't matter if it's off or on); and installed autofs-4.0.0pre7 (compiled, installed the modules to /usr/lib/autofs, and copied auto.net to /etc/init.d).

In general automounter works for NFS filesystems. However, we use the following multimount construction on Sun, IBM (AIX), and SGI (IRIX) machines which COMES UP EMPTY with linux...

fs1 \
        /3dnet                  fileserver.res.utc.com:/3dnet  \
        /RMG                    fileserver.res.utc.com:/RMG  \
        /control_tech           fileserver.res.utc.com:/control_tech  \
        /cs                     fileserver.res.utc.com:/cs
 

The NEWS seemed to indicate that multimounting works. Does it or am I missing something?
