Full Discussion: AUTOFS - Troubleshoot directory does not exist
Operating Systems Solaris AUTOFS - Troubleshoot directory does not exist Post 302300306 by TonyFullerMalv on Monday 23rd of March 2009 08:07:08 PM

Okay if you want to mount mount -F nfs linxnet:/export/home/server to /mnt/sum then you want a line in the auto_direct file like this:
Code:
/mnt/sum linxnet:/export/home/server

plus any options you may need to add.

The auto_master file lists all the other active automount tables.
So if you wanted a lot of different mounts under /mnt then you could make a new table call auto_mnt and add it into auto_direct:
Code:
/mnt auto_mnt

Then the mount I mentioned above would go into auto_mnt as:
Code:
sum linxnet:/export/home/server

All this applies to the machine you want to NFS mount to, only the /etc/fstab file needs configuring on the NFS server.

nfsmount.conf

NFSMOUNT.CONF(5)						File Formats Manual						  NFSMOUNT.CONF(5)

NAME

       nfsmount.conf - Configuration file for NFS mounts

SYNOPSIS

       Configuration file for NFS mounts that allows options to be set globally, per server or per mount point.

DESCRIPTION

       The  configuration  file  is  made  up  of multiple sections followed by variables associated with that section.  A section is defined by a
       string enclosed by [ and ] branches.  Variables are assignment statements that assign values to particular variables using the =  operator,
       as in Proto=Tcp.  Sections are broken up into three basic categories: Global options, Server options and Mount Point options.

       [ NFSMount_Global_Options ] - This statically named section defines all of the global mount options that can be applied to every NFS mount.

       [  Server  "Server_Name"  ]  -  This  section  defines  all the mount options that should be used on mounts to a particular NFS server. The
	      "Server_Name" strings needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the server name used in the mount command.

       [ MountPoint "Mount_Point" ] - This section defines all the  mount  options  that  should  be  used  on	a  particular  mount  point.   The
	      "Mount_Point" string needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the mount point used in the mount command.

EXAMPLES

       These are some example lines of how sections and variables are defined in the configuration file.

       [ NFSMount_Global_Options ]
	   Proto=Tcp

	      The TCP protocol will be used on every NFS mount.

       [ Server "nfsserver.foo.com" ]
	   rsize=32k
	   wsize=32k

	      A 33k (32768 bytes) block size will be used as the read and write size on all mounts to the 'nfsserver.foo.com' server.

	[ MountPoint "/export/home" ]
	   Background=True

	      All mounts to the '/export/home' export will be performed in the background (i.e. done asynchronously).
