I've been using amd on bleeding-edge current for the past year or so with
no problems - the servers in my case are Solaris 2.5.1 boxes.

I remember becoming extremely confused when I configured my first amd map
file, since there was no coherent documentation to be found at the time, but
I ended up with this (and have kept it ever since):

  % grep amd /etc/rc.conf
  amd_enable="YES"		# Run amd service with $amd_flags (or NO).
  amd_flags="-a /a -c 1800 -k i386 -d clear.net.nz -l syslog /home /etc/amd.home.map /net /etc/amd.net.map"
  amd_map_program="NO"		# Can be set to "ypcat -k amd.master"
  %
  % cat /etc/amd.home.map
  # auto-mount home directories
  /defaults	type:=nfs;rfs=/export/${path};rhost:=oms
  jabley		rhost:=intdev
  *		opts:=rw,resvport
  %
  % cat /etc/amd.net.map
  # automount /net hierarchies
  /defaults		opts:=rw,grpid,resvport,nosuid
  buddha			type:=link;fs=/
  *			type:=host;rhost:=${key}
  
buddha is the local machine; intdev is where my home directory happens to
be (everybody else's is mounted off oms).

Never had a problem with it. Just to confirm that amd is not hideously
broken beyond the point where _some_ people can use it just fine.
