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.
