Thanks to

Following Spider's advice, I copied the maps with
./ypxfr -f -h `ypwhich -m group.byname` auto.master
./ypxfr -f -h `ypwhich -m group.byname` auto.home
./ypxfr -f -h `ypwhich -m group.byname` auto.direct
After this, the slave server knows about the auto.* maps and copies
these maps with usual ypxfer options.
