I have a site that is currently using NFS4 for most of its traffic. We 
have a mix of autofs4 and autofs5 clients. The following map is used to 
provide access to host filing system exports

Auto.master:

/hosts     auto.hosts

auto.hosts

*       -fstype=nfs4,tcp,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,intr,nodev,nosuid &:/

This works fine in both autofs4 and autofs5 if the client is not the 
server (i.e. loopback ...) However with autofs5 this returns the root of 
the local file system not the exported nfs4 root.

Is there a map syntax that would work round this? Ideally I would like 
the map to be the same on all hosts, I can have different maps on the 
autofs4 and autofs5 hosts easily but would not want to have a separate 
map per host.
