I just encountered and solved a problem that turned out to be caused by a newly deployed cfengine infrastructure. Running version 2.1.11.
After running cfagent on my clients, automount stopped working. CFengine was copying /etc/auto.master and /etc/auto.users files onto the clients with (default) permissions of 700. This tricked automount into thinking the map was a program instead of a file.
Ref: http://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg00545.html
The log entries look like this:
Feb 3 12:33:51 linux04 automount[28992]: attempting to mount entry /users/home
Feb 3 12:33:51 linux04 automount[29043]: lookup(program): lookup for home failed
I don't understand why 700 is the default for a file. 600 maybe.
But after chmod -x /etc/auto.* I am back in business.
