Retitling as appropriate. The setting in /etc/default/autofs -- MOUNT_NFS_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL -- has no effect on this. Can you tell me please how did you manage to install server without rpcbind -- provided the server is running Debian too? :) And now, I'm not sure what to do with all this. Maybe it is better to stop automount from messing up with the filesystems completely, and let the real tools to do the work? I dunno, and I don't really know what advantages the in-autofs NFS handling gives, over nfs-utils utilities.
