We would like to continue to disable direct mounts. The other option is
to use a different "auto.master" w/o the auto.direct, but we would like
to avoid that.

Why do you want to disable direct mounts?
To solve our /usr/local issue.

Our NIS master is a Solaris box. We have an entry in auto.direct for /usr/local that currently points to our Sun Solaris binaries.
The auto.direct is included in our auto.master

We are considering a move to autofs 5.x as part of our OS upgrade. We could create a separate auto.master.lnx that does not have auto.direct in it, but we prefer not to do that.

"Solving the /usr/local/ puzzle" as the NIS and NFS book suggests is something we can do, I am just not sure if we can do that right away.

So someway to disable auto.direct would be useful for us.

Thanks.
