When I run man 'auto.master', the format it gives me does not seem to
coincide with the above at all unless I'm missing something?
are dell, nissan, and rosalind2 NIS exported file systems?
Should you be checking NIS stuff maybe? I have a feeling the above is
not the problem, but whatever protocols/modules/services are needed to
get this auto-mounted isn't running.
