-
- <para>The automatic mounter daemon,
- <application>amd</application>, automatically mounts a remote
- file system whenever a file or directory within that file
- system is accessed. File systems that are inactive for a
- period of time will be automatically unmounted by
- <application>amd</application>.</para>
-
- <para>This daemon provides an alternative to modifying
- <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> to list every client. It
- operates by attaching itself as an <acronym>NFS</acronym>
- server to the <filename>/host</filename> and
- <filename>/net</filename> directories. When a file is
- accessed within one of these directories,
- <application>amd</application> looks up the corresponding
- remote mount and automatically mounts it.
- <filename>/net</filename> is used to mount an exported file
- system from an <acronym>IP</acronym> address while
- <filename>/host</filename> is used to mount an export from a
- remote hostname. For instance, an attempt to access a file
- within <filename>/host/foobar/usr</filename> would tell
- <application>amd</application> to mount the
- <filename>/usr</filename> export on the host
- <systemitem>foobar</systemitem>.</para>
-
- <example>
- <title>Mounting an Export with
- <application>amd</application></title>
-
- <para>In this example, <command>showmount -e</command> shows
- the exported file systems that can be mounted from the
- <acronym>NFS</acronym> server,
- <systemitem>foobar</systemitem>:</para>
-
- <screen>&prompt.user; <userinput>showmount -e foobar</userinput>
-Exports list on foobar:
-/usr 10.10.10.0
-/a 10.10.10.0
-&prompt.user; <userinput>cd /host/foobar/usr</userinput></screen>
- </example>
-
- <para>The output from <command>showmount</command> shows
- <filename>/usr</filename> as an export. When changing
- directories to <filename>/host/foobar/usr</filename>,
- <application>amd</application> intercepts the request and
- attempts to resolve the hostname
- <systemitem>foobar</systemitem>. If successful,
- <application>amd</application> automatically mounts the
- desired export.</para>
-
- <para>To enable <application>amd</application> at boot time, add
- this line to <filename>/etc/rc.conf</filename>:</para>
-
- <programlisting>amd_enable="YES"</programlisting>
-
- <para>To start <application>amd</application> now:</para>
-
- <screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>service amd start</userinput></screen>
-
- <para>Custom flags can be passed to
- <application>amd</application> from the
- <varname>amd_flags</varname> environment variable. By
- default, <varname>amd_flags</varname> is set to:</para>
-
- <programlisting>amd_flags="-a /.amd_mnt -l syslog /host /etc/amd.map /net /etc/amd.map"</programlisting>
-
- <para>The default options with which exports are mounted are
- defined in <filename>/etc/amd.map</filename>. Some of the
- more advanced features of <application>amd</application> are
- defined in <filename>/etc/amd.conf</filename>.</para>
-
- <para>Consult &man.amd.8; and &man.amd.conf.5; for more
- information.</para>
