You may just want to try building the latest autofs from kernel.org and 
installing that on RH6.2.  I know that in RH7 and above Nalin wrote a special 
binary to parse the ldap entries instead of using a shell script.  So the 
upgrade to the latest autofs may not be the full solution.  I am just not 
sure.

Anyone else have any suggestions?
