Forgot to say that all the automounter does is automatically mounts the remote filesystem after a client system re-boot for example. It is all to do with NFS.

showmount(1M) System Administration Commands showmount(1M)
NAME
showmount - show remote mounts
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/showmount [-ade] [hostname]
DESCRIPTION
showmount lists the clients that have remotely mounted a filesystem from host. This information is maintained by the mountd(1M) server on
host, and is saved across crashes in the file /etc/rmtab. The default value for host is the value returned by hostname(1).
The showmount command does not display the names of NFS Version 4 clients.
OPTIONS
-a Print all remote mounts in the format:
hostname : directory
where hostname is the name of the client, and directory is the root of the file system that has been mounted.
-d List directories that have been remotely mounted by clients.
-e Print the list of shared file systems.
FILES
/etc/rmtab
