Thanks, I uninstalled it.  I also realized that it was stat'ing lots of soft
links into /auto causing over 250 attempted automounts.  Heh, I can't have that.

If I were a newbie, I'd be really annoyed right now.  A relatively undocumented
program that was automatically installed is automatically undoing all of my
legitimate system changes without asking/informing me.  Hell, I've been
admin'ing/designing/building Linux servers for years and I didn't know what
was going on.
