Agreed. I would like to see autofs v4 in FC.
It helps out greatly when in an NFS/NIS environment when home
directories are automounted. As far as I can tell the 3.x version in
the distribution right now won't/can't do this.
I have done the autofs-for-home-directories thing without any problems
(other than fat fingering a config file :-) with autofs v3. We use
RHL9, RHEL3, FC1, SuSE, Solaris and Aurora without any difficulties.
There have been other distributions and Unix variants in there before,
as well.
I am curious to know what documentation (or whatever) indicates to you
that autofs v3 can not mount home directories?
