How to Use a Public File Handle With Autofs

1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

   Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services. To configure a role with the Primary Administrator profile, see Chapter 2, Working With the Solaris Management Console (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

2. Create an entry in the autofs map such as the following:

   /usr/local -ro,public bee:/export/share/local

   The public option forces the public handle to be used. If the NFS server does not support a public file handle, the mount fails.
