Alvin> http://www.Linux-Consulting.com/Amd_AutoFS I looked at the aforementioned docs and didn't find anything really useful on autofs (as far as /net is concerned). *BUT* I took a look at amd and found that it supports the /net construct! Right out of the box! So I loaded am-utils on my box and set it up to watch /net and it works shwell! (For those of you interested,: Yes, I am running both autofs and amd on the same box, doing different things.)
