Which version to uses, nsswitch.conf parse errors

[Marc Weber <marco-oweber@gmx.de>]

Hi at all,

I'd like to add some automount support to the nixos linux distribution.
however I don't know exactly which version to I should use?

automount v5 (autfs4 kernel module (?)) or automount v4?

For now I've tried v5. However when starting automount I get some parse
errors:

[...]
--accepting rule at line 92 ("
")
--accepting rule at line 92 ("
")
--accepting rule at line 87 ("automount:")
--accepting rule at line 95 (" ")
--accepting rule at line 97 ("files")
syntax error in nsswitch config near [ syntax error ]

My nsswitch.conf is attached below.


It looks to me like the lexer ignoring everything until it reaches
a ^automount line?

Should I stick to the older automount version?
Maybe you can help me understand the problem so that I can try improving
the error message?

I've built the 9a77464b git version.

Thanks
Marc Weber
