one need to normalize the "data"

number of bugs filed

autofs - is the better choice for simple things...
- it's in the kernel
- it ez ( trivial ) to setup
- it does simple automounting for servers things like
mail:/var/spool/mail
home:/home
- it does NOT do failover in that, if home1:/home is down,
it will not go find home2:/home instead
amd - older app for running automounters
- it's everything in the kitchen sink
- it's not as ez to setup
- i forgot if it supported nfs failover
