Yes, I didnt know how to represent what was in ldap very well so I made 
it look like it did in NIS.

If there is a good way to do an ldapsearch to show the exact config, 
please show me the syntax and I would be happy to report that back.

According to the automount man page, the wildcard for ldap is a / so 
that is what I was using.  What I thought was odd was it was always 
choosing the same thing and it *wasn't* the wildcard.

I didnt think there was ordering per say in the nis or ldap maps.

If my config is wrong, or if I cant do wildcards in this way, that is 
fine.  I just know it works differently between 3.1.7 and 4.1.0.
