autofs-5.0.8 - fix variable substitution description
|
||
|
|
||
|
From: Ian Kent <ikent@redhat.com>
|
||
|
|
||
|
The desription about Variable substitution in autofs(5) says that
|
||
|
translation is done on the key and location fields which is not
|
||
|
correct.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Expecting to be able to receive a key from the kernel that
|
||
|
contains variables to be substituted doesn't make sense and
|
||
|
to be able to use map keys with substitution would mean a full
|
||
|
map scan for every lookup for all map sources. That is not
|
||
|
unacceptable for large maps.
