How to Use NFS URLs With Autofs

  1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

    For information about roles, see "Using Privileged Applications" in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

  2. Create an autofs entry such as the following:


    /usr/local     -ro    nfs://bee/export/share/local

    The service tries to use the public file handle on the NFS server, but if the server does not support a public file handle, the MOUNT protocol is used.
