The problem I noticed is that the autofs script that comes with Debian
2.2 has a text for /etc/auto.master, and if that exists, it *doesn't*
look at the auto.master YP map! This is a change of behaviour (one I
disapprove of). Since the default Debian installation has some (silly,
IMHO) sample /etc/auto.master file, I just blew that away and
rebooted.
