Bug Description

Autofs 5.1.9 contains a bug such that when map sources are held on an LDAP server with Kerberos authentication it fails to connect to the server after the first Kerberos ticket has expired. It's been fixed by a patch in Fedora, but Noble currently has the broken version.

The gory details are here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2214399

The patch landed in Fedora version 5.1.9-7.fc40 and is called 'autofs-5.1.9-fix-always-recreate-credential-cache.patch'

The detail is that on line 679 of modules/cyrus-sasl.c there's a call to monotonic_time(NULL) which needs instead to be the vanilla time(NULL) to fetch the current wall-clock time.

Thanks
