Weird automounter behaviour, 4.0E pk1

Regards,

I have the following situation:

When trying to change file attributes on a automounted filesystem I get
'permission denied'. When I do the same thing specifying the full path
it's OK. Look at the below session to get a grip on what's going on. The
hosts in question are two ASE 1.5 cluster hosts running 4.0E PK1 and
they are both trusting each other via proper export rights and .rhosts.
Anyone able to shed a light on this ? (Note that the key in NIS map
auto.home is /h)

# uname -a
OSF1 host1 V4.0 1091 alpha
# chown -R /h/user1/tmp/72
chown: /h/user1/tmp/72: Permission denied
chown: /h/user1/tmp/72: Permission denied
# rsh ase_service2 'chown -R user1 /h/user1/tmp/72'
chown: /h/user1/tmp/72: Permission denied
chown: /h/user1/tmp/72: Permission denied
# ypmatch -k user1 auto.home
user1: ase_service2:/home/ase_service2/dr1/ded/&
# rsh ase_service2 chown -R user1
/home/ase_service2/dr1/ded/user1/tmp/72
# chown -R user2 /home/bgnfs2/dr1/ded/user1/tmp/72
# chown -R user1 /home/bgnfs2/dr1/ded/user1/tmp/72

B.T.W anyone knows why Compaq as the only major unix player not support
autofs ?
