SUMMARY: auto_direct and NIS+ trouble

Thanks to Jim Blevins and Stiven Xiao.
I should have read  man more carefully. auto_master is suppoused to be a
collection of references to other maps. So here how my auto_master looks
like
# niscat -h auto_master.org_dir
# key value
/- auto_visit.org_dir

# niscat -h auto_visit.org_dir
# key value
/u guest:/u
/usr/local guest:/usr/local
/var/mail guest:/var/mail
/fs/guest/usr2 guest:/fs/guest/usr2
/fs/guest/usr3 guest:/fs/guest/usr3
/fs/guest/usr4 guest:/fs/guest/usr4

I ran automount -v after I'd changed maps, but when I tryed to access any
of the filesystems I got "permission denied" error, so I restarted
automountd and it helped.

original question
---------------------------------------------------------------
I have installed NIS+ server (no replicas) and 1 NIS+ client machine
according to Solaris Naming Setup and Configuration Guide. I want client
machine to read auto_master table from NIS+ server. Here is what I've
done:
Created auto_master on server with nistbladm command

# niscat -o auto_master.org_dir
Object Name   : "auto_master"
Directory     : "org_dir.visit.research.telcordia.com."
Owner         : "guest.visit.research.telcordia.com."
Group         : ""
Access Rights : ----rmcdr---r---
Time to Live  : 12:0:0
Creation Time : Tue Dec 11 13:59:59 2001
Mod. Time     : Tue Dec 11 13:59:59 2001
Object Type   : TABLE
Table Type          : automount_map
Number of Columns   : 2
Character Separator :
Search Path         :
Columns             :
        [0]     Name          : key
                Attributes    : (SEARCHABLE, TEXTUAL DATA, CASE
SENSITIVE)
                Access Rights : ----rmcdr---r---
        [1]     Name          : value
                Attributes    : (SEARCHABLE, TEXTUAL DATA, CASE
SENSITIVE)
                Access Rights : ----rmcdr---r---


# niscat -h auto_master.org_dir
# key value
/u guest:/u
/usr/local guest:/usr/local
/var/mail guest:/var/mail
/fs/guest/usr2 guest:/fs/guest/usr2
/fs/guest/usr3 guest:/fs/guest/usr3


created /u, /usr/local and /fs directories on client machine. All
filesystems are shared on server and I can mount them manually from
client machine, but automounter does not mount them, df -k shows nothing
about those filesystems.
