You should check the version of /sbin/mount - newer versions don't connect
the socket (if your kernel is not too old (below 1.1.3x, I think)). And
you might check the version of amd, if you use automounting. The debian
version contains the neccesa^H^H^H^H^Hsseca^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hneeded (:-)
patches.
Hope this helps.
