I am having trouble getting automount to work on a diskless machine using
the builtin hosts map.  Manual mounts and non-builtin maps work fine.

Does anybody have automount working on a diskless machine with the builtin
maps and did you have to do something special to get it to work? We are
running NIS using netgroups to define export permissions on the servers.

Any help appreciated.
