Hello, [This bug was found and fixed by Werner Fink <werner@xxxxxxx>, I'm just the messenger.] When the extension of the map file name is equal to the map type name, the automounter will fail to parse the master map. How to reproduce: # cat /etc/auto.master /media/autofs file:/etc/autofs.file --timeout=5 --ghost # cat /etc/auto.file test server:/nfs // start the daemon and check the logs: Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: ghosting enabled Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: master_do_mount: mounting /media/autofs Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: automount_path_to_fifo: fifo name /run/autofs.fifo-media-autofs Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: lookup_nss_read_map: reading map file /etc/autofs.sfil Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: lookup(file): file map /etc/autofs.sfil missing or not readable Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: do_read_map: lookup module file failed Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: mount_autofs_indirect: failed to read map for /media/autofs Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: handle_mounts: mount of /media/autofs failed! Aug 24 13:13:43 lotus automount[9719]: master_do_mount: failed to startup mount To fix the problem we can make the colon after the map-type non-optional, here's the patch: From: Werner Fink <werner@xxxxxxx> When the map file has the same extension as the used map type the token parser should be able to handle this. Therefore make the colon as described in the manual page not optional if a map type is specified. Additionally, fix a redefinition warning in the 'min' macro.
