==> Regarding [autofs] Difference in behaviour between 4.1.3 and 4.1.4; Max 
Matveev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> adds:

makc> It seems that 4.1.4 has fixed a problem which 4.1.3 suffers from: if
makc> a server does not export /, then autofs mount via auto.net would fail
makc> with the following in the syslog:

makc> Aug 2 18:11:46 laura automount[6968]: mount(nfs): mkdir_path
makc> /net/mazur/var failed: Operation not permitted

makc> This is with SLES9 and autofs4-4.1.3. FC4 with autofs-4.1.4-5 works.
makc> Whould anybody know which particular change in 4.1.4 is responsible
makc> for fixing that problem? And is it something which was changed from
makc> 4.1.3 to 4.1.4 or is it FC's good work?

I have never seen this issue.  I haven't seen it in the upstream autofs
package nor in any variant of the Red Hat packages with which I work.
