At the link below you will find a patch that adds the new automounter.

Testing is welcome. Please start with manual pages, eg. automount(8).
Note that you need not only to rebuild both kernel and world, but also
to run mergemaster, to install required /etc files. To run at startup,
add 'autofs_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf.

Hi!
Great to see a real autofs finally coming to FreeBSD.
I already did some very cursory testing on a recent 11-CURRENT system
that I still happened to have and things with at least the /net map look
quite OK.
I could do some more extensive testing if I could use some of my
10-STABLE systems. I already checked that the patch applies cleanly to a
recent 10-STABLE (modulo a few offsets) and that both buildworld and
buildkernel succeed. Should I expect difficulties actually running your
autofs on 10-STABLE?
And do you plan support for NIS? I know NIS is quite dead and has been
so for at least 20 years, but I still see it being used occasionally
(probably most out of habit) and it is (still ?) available in the
base-system.
Kind regards,
Hans
