--- Comment #11 from Martin Birgmeier <d8zNeCFG at aon.at> ---
I installed the patch on all my machines now.

Something is still amiss because very often, even though everything has been
unmounted, /var/db/mounttab and the corresponding entries on the server in
/var/db/mountdtab are not fully cleared.

Such a situation can be worked around by again automounting the still-existing
entries and the auto-unmounting them again. In most cases, this will clear
/var/db/mounttab (and the corresponding entries on the server in
/var/db/mountdtab).

Maybe there is another path whereby the unmount of an auto-mounted directory
can take place?
