Greetings.
I compiled autofs 4.1.4 for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (SLES9). I
did found a little problem with auto.net. The original code has:
key=$1
However, under SLES9, in my network environment, $key can be of the form
"server/something[/otherthing]*", which is wrong. $key should only be a
server name. I fixed the problem with:
key=`echo $1 | perl -wp -e 's%^(\w+)(\/?.+)*$%$1%;'`
My fix removes any path after the server name.

Exactly why automount passes a server name containg some path is unclear
for me. But I wanted to report this here. If other suffer from this,
you might want to consider some fix like mine (maybe using sed which is
more standard).

Ian, this sounds more like papering over the real problem to me. Do you
agree? I'd like to see some debug output.
Yep. Absolutely right.
Your post was clearly more useful than what I had to say.
And I agree it is likely one of the issues we have recently investigated.
Perhaps the SuSE folks haven't merged some of the recent kernel patches.
Hans, could you spend a bit of time to get us a debug log please.
Ian
No problem. Just give me instructions on how to proceed. I am not that
familiar with autofs and its code/features.
Best regards,
Hans Deragon
