Description:

autofs-5.0.6 has an IPv4 host name lookup bug, see the following mailing thread:

autofs@linux.kernel.org/msg08715.html"> http://www.mail-archive.com/autofs@linux.kernel.org/msg08715.html

Perhaps they also can come up with a suitable and accepted patch for the problem.

Steps to reproduce:

Upgrade to autofs-5.0.6, try to automount a IPv4 host with the following in the auto.master file:

/net -hosts

And something like this in /etc/hosts:

192.168.0.1 server1

automount will try to lookup erver1 which fails => nothing is mounted.
This task depends upon
