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. |
