Seems that autofs in 6.2 stopped working like it used to.
We use NIS and automount maps.
Primary map auto.sf ssdt -fstype=autofs,rw auto_ssdt
auto.ssdt map scratch -fstype=nfs,hard,intr gold:/vol/ssdt/scratch
So finding a path such as /sf/ssdt/scratch has always worked and continues to work on non CentOS 6.2 machines. This ability stopped with CentOS 6.2
CentOS 6.0 uses autofs-5.0.5-23.el6.x86_64.rpm
CentOS 6.2 uses autofs-5.0.5-39.el6.x86_64.rpm
The work around seems to be to remove autofs in CentOS 6.2 And do an rpm install of autofs from CentOS 6.0.
I presume it is a flaw upstream. Anyone else observing this behavior?
