This bug started out as 'autofs does not work with lucid'
but the more recent comments indicate 'autofs works with lucid but does not start on boot in lucid'

Can we nail down which it is and fix the notes and/or the title?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS; autofs is working fine for me but does not start on boot despite :
$ runlevel
N 2
$ ls -l /etc/rc2.d/*autofs
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root daemon 16 2010-05-02 07:38 /etc/rc2.d/S20autofs -> ../init.d/autofs

I work around this by adding 'service autofs start' to /etc/rc.local :
$ grep autofs /etc/rc.local
service autofs start
