Linuxconf knows little about the amd automounter. There is no
known default configuration file for amd, so we are proposing
/etc/conf.amd.map
.
Linuxconf knows how to start and restart the amd server
depending on the status of the file /etc/conf.amd.map
.
At this point this is all that Linuxconf is doing with amd.
A sample conf.amd.map is supplied in /usr/lib/linuxconf
. This file
is used for NFS. Whenever you have this file installed in
/etc
and start the amd server, you will get a "magic"
/n
directory. Whenever you do
ls /n/any-host/dir/...
the automounter will wake up and establish the NFS mount (if possible) to this "any-host" server. The mount will be dropped after five minutes of inactivity.
