/net -hosts -rw
/home auto_home -nosuid
/- auto_direct
The first column in the file is the path to automount, which means that when users at clients try to
access this directory, the link will be enabled automatically. In the second column, the parameters
are the paths for databases, which record the mount information about the directory in the first
column except for
“
-hosts
”
. The example above has a special line
“
/-auto_direct.
”
“
/-
”
is not a
directory. The directories to be mounted are in the database
“
auto_direct.
”
Its format is:
/etc/auto_direct
#Mount point Mount options File system
/usr/local -ro,nosuid NAS5400:/volume1/programs
/public -rw datakey:/volume1/public1
The first column is the mount point and the second column represents the mounting parameters.
The third column shows the NFS file system in use. For example, if users of UNIX clients want to
access the files in /usr/local, /usr/local will automatically link to NAS5400:/volume1/programs
based on auto_direct.
The other database
“
auto_home
”
can have different links according to different user names. Its
format is:
#User name File system
sysadmin NAS5400:/volume1/homes/sysadmin
justind NAS5400:/volume1/homes/justind
anneli datakey:/volume1/users/anneli
jiem datakey:/volume1/users/&
Assume that /etc/passwd (the file holding the user accounts) on the NIS server has the following
content:
sysadmin:x:1000:500:System Administrator:/home/sysadmin:/bin/tcsh
justind:x:1001:500:Justin Deng:/home/justind:/bin/tcsh
anneli:x:1002:500:Anne Li:/home/anneli:/bin/tcsh
