I am not doing any more work on this at this stage. Perhaps if there was some input and the possibility of the patches making it into the distribution I would want to put more effort into it (Jeremy are you still there ???).

I understand that direct maps and NIS maps does not work with autofs4. In our UNIX environment both are of major importance. Home directories through indirect NIS maps and maintenance directories through direct maps some placed locally and some through NIS. What would you suggest me to do in order to include linux boxes in our UNIX environment? Are patches for autofs4 available giving these features? Wait for autofs5? Use alternative tools such as AMD? Modify the NIS maps through scripts to local maps and access directories through soft links?
