[Bug 1007273] Re: autofs does not start automatically after reboot

Thomas, with Ubuntu 11.10 and later, there is a guarantee that all of
the "auto" interfaces have been brought up before runlevel 2 is reached
(or after 2 minutes of waiting for said interfaces has passed). This is
controlled by if-up.d scripts, which are only called after the interface
has been configured. This means it has an IP, its DNS settings have been
applied, and any gateways mentioned have been assigned.

Now, if you have configured DNS to point at a local DNS cache, that may
be the issue. I would recommend having your DNS cache service do this:

start on starting rc RUNLEVEL=[2345]

That will ensure that it is started before any other runlevel [2345]
services are started.
