package: autofs version: 4.1.4+debian-2.1 This bug was originally reported in Ubuntu at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autofs/+bug/119660
"At the moment the autofs deamon is started by a regular init script. If the autofs daemon loads its configuration from the network (NIS or LDAP), the configuration is only available after the network interface is up. Using the init script, the autofs daemon tries to load the configuration when the network interface is not yet ready (e.g. no DHCP address assigned yet, etc). I suggest to put a little script in /etc/network/if-up.d/ and /etc/network/if-down.d/ to reload the autofs daemon, so that the configuration gets updated when the state of one of the network interfaces changes. At the moment I'm using a very simple script on my machine: #!/bin/sh # Not for loopback! [ "$IFACE" != "lo" ] || exit 0 /etc/init.d/autofs reload" Further information (if needed) for this bug can be found at the Launchpad address.
