This is a known issue, and there are patches to address it. Depending on
what kernel you are running, you may also have to patch that as well.
Unfortunately, I can't find the map update patch in the usual place. You
can get it from the srpms here:
http://people.redhat.com/jmoyer/
Grab the latest srpm, and extract these two patches:
autofs-4.1.3-ian-map-expiry-1.patch
autofs-4.1.3-ian-map-expiry-multimount-fix.patch
The kernel patch you want is also listed on the website above. You could
also just wait for 4.1.4 (or the beta version thereof).
Hope this helps.
Jeff
