Autofs

Hi Gurus,

Can u help me to comprehend the files to edit, its purpose and how to monitor the autofs. I'm finding myself so confused reading the documents.
The OS is HP-UX 11i.

Hello, Check this manual at http://docs.hp.com/en/B1031-90057/ch02s02.html
[Enhanced AutoFS Administrator's Guide > Chapter 2. Installing Enhanced AutoFS >
Enabling Enhanced AutoFS ]

AutoFS is a client-side software/service that supports automatic mounting and unmounting of file systems.

Re: Autofs

Hey;

*AND* make sure you're running the enhanced automouonter - it doesn't come standard with 11.11 but does w/11.23

The standard automounter that comes w/11i is, putting it as nicely as possible, an unmitigated piece of !@#$%!
Get the enhanced automounter from:
