Unfortunately I'm still not able to replicate this issue. Are you able to replicate this with kitchen on your end? I'm wondering if the issue is cased by a specific line in your /etc/auto.master that isn't in the default config. Would it be possible to provide your file before running this resource so I can verify?

[manish-nuance]

facing multiple entry issue with direct maps like "/-".. I'm using custom chef recipe to apply following.
did your try with followings.. ?

automaster_entry '/-' do
map '/etc/auto.top'
options '--timeout 120'
end

this automaster_entry "/-" gives multiple entry in auto.master
/- /etc/auto.top --timeout 120 ;; this line of entry is good
/top /etc/auto.top ;; this line of entry is created with map files extension.

Otherwise, look all good with indirect maps like "/xyz"

Yes I tried that and couldn't produce this creating a duplicate entry. That's why I'm wondering if there is something else in the file that the regex is having an issue with that I need on my end so I can replicate it.
