I don’t know about problem number 1, but I think I can help you out on problem number 2. We were having the same problem, and I found this solution somewhere:

On the clients, edit the file /etc/hostconfig and change the line AUTOMOUNT=-YES- to AUTOMOUNT=-NO-

This solved it for us.

The 10.4.10 update didn’t solve the problem but I finally found a solution:

change the following entry in /etc/hostconfig:
AUTOMOUNT=-YES- to AUTOMOUNT=-NO-

This disables NFS automount and solves the problem. So if you don’t need nfs mounts you’re fine.

I used the following unix command in Apple Remote Desktop to change this on all my machines:

perl -p -i.bak -e 's/AUTOMOUNT=-YES-/AUTOMOUNT=-NO-/' /etc/hostconfig

Thanks so much for this, we were having exactly the same problem, and I’ve seen others online with this problem as well. It worked for us!
