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.
