The above workaround didn't work for me (-no-ping), and this is a show stopping bug for gutsy in my lab environment (mostly a mixture of dapper and feisty workstations, using NIS). I've two workarounds; one is to manually reload autofs on start, but this is impractical for the number of workstations in use. The other is to turn off roaming on my wired connection and set it manually to use DHCP. I've three boxes effected by this bug, and I'll test the other two ASAP and report back if it doesn't work for them.
