The libc6 on the spoarc-debian tree (ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/ has a
strange version number: libc6_2.0.93-980414-1.deb. It is not the
latest version 2.0.7-t1 as in the i386 tree, I suppose. So I just
wonder if upgrading to the newest libc6 (how ?) and recompiling autofs
could help ?

The version number is because Debian Sparc Linux is using the beta glibc 2.1
instead of 2.0.

   Hi all,
   In a previous post, I have reported that the autofs system
 dosen't work reliably. I think now I know why: the daemon automount
 dies misteriously some time after boot. Just after boot, if I lauch
 ps aux, I see /usr/sbin/automount listed but later on (may be several
 miutes), ps wouldn't list this daemon. As a result, if automount is
 involked shortly after boot, it works. Further, if automount dies
 before it has unmounted the directory, it remains mounted. Therefore
 autofs sometime seem to works but it is not.

I had the same problem.  I found that recompiling the autofs package with
libc5 solved the problem.
