AUTOMOUNTD(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					     AUTOMOUNTD(8)

NAME

     automountd -- daemon handling autofs mount requests

SYNOPSIS

     automountd [-D name=value] [-i] [-m maxproc] [-o options] [-d] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

     The automountd daemon is responsible for handling autofs(5) mount requests, parsing maps, and mounting filesystems they specify.  On startup,
     automountd forks into background and waits for kernel requests.  When a request is received, automountd forks a child process.  The child
     process parses the appropriate map and mounts filesystems accordingly.  Then it signals the kernel to release blocked processes that were
     waiting for the mount.

     -D  Define a variable.

     -i  For indirect mounts, only create subdirectories if there are no wildcard entries.  Without -i, automountd creates all the subdirectories
	 it can.  Users may not realize that the wildcard map entry makes it possible to access directories that have not yet been created.

     -m maxproc
	 Limit the number of forked automountd processes, and thus the number of mount requests being handled in parallel.  The default is 30.

     -d  Debug mode: increase verbosity and do not daemonize.

     -o options
	 Specify mount options.  Options specified here ill be overridden by options entered in maps or auto_master(5).

     -v  Increase verbosity.

EXIT STATUS

     The automountd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

SEE ALSO

     auto_master(5), autofs(5), automount(8), autounmountd(8)

HISTORY

     The automountd daemon appeared in FreeBSD 10.1.

AUTHORS

     The automountd was developed by Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org> under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation.
