Fajar,
  Is your /home a mounted partition?  Or /home exists before hand.  Automounts will create
the directory as needed when autofs is started.  In other words /home can't exist on ether
the root partition or have any other partitions mounted to /home.

 Fajar,
   I assume you want your nfstest user to mount their home directory in
/home.  Your autofs files should be:
 auto.master
 /home      /etc/auto.home --timeout=60
 auto.home
*       -rw,soft,intr   192.168.1.247:/home/&
    

Hi Dana,
Thank you very much for replying.
Actually, that was one of the first configurations I tried, but, when I tried 
it, autofs couldn't be started with error:
"Cannot start automount. 
/home already mounted"

I don't know, maybe it's because I have done some mistakes before. But, I 
couldn't restart the machine since it's my running mail server (shame on me 
by experimenting on a production server).

I'll setup some boxes at home to try it again.
I'll post the result.
