Workaround: explicitly specifying the port in the mount map disables autofs' portmapper attempts:
-port=2049,-fstype=nfs4,sec=krb5,actimeo=5,timeo=60
It looks like this is currently scheduled for the RHEL 6.4 GA (~Jan/Feb 2013).

Hi,
Autofs in SL 6.3 has some problems with mounting NFSv4 filesystems. These problems are also present in the TUVs packages, so this is not specific to SL. The details are in this bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=834641
There are some updated packages here:
http://people.redhat.com/~ikent/autofs-5.0.5-55.el6
which it seems like are probably not going to make it out until TUV 6.4 release.
I wonder if SL should consider making these updates available somewhere (eg. the rolling tree or fastbugs or somesuch) - I realize this flies in the face of the principle of sticking as close as possible to TUV. Anyway, just wanted to raise awareness of the issue if nothing else.
Cheers,
Jonathan.
We don't typically package pre-release rpms from upstream. I appreciate the notification on the problem, as I'm sure others do as well. Information is always good.
I've added myself to the CC list on the bug to keep an eye on this package's progress.
