[autofs] running out of mount points

[Greg Bradner]

I wanted to repost this plea. I am really in a bind and could use some 
help. I need to mount these users on the mail server.
BTW: this is with autofs 4.1.0

I have run into a problem of running out of mount points.  I have over 
600 users and their home dirs are listed in auto.home and they are all 
stored on the same nfs server.  If I list the dirs, automount will 
create a seperate mount point for each user, and at ~256 mount points, 
no more home dirs can be mounted.
Is there a work around?

Here is the auto.master and snip of auto.home

auto.master:
/home                   /etc/auto.maps/auto.home
       vers=3,hard,intr,nosuid,nodev,rw,retrans=4,timeo=15,mountvers=2
auto.home:
