autofs – mini “how to” as requested

Posted by in Operations on Apr 18th, 2010

This is a very high level revision of my previous post on autofs which outlines only the process to automount a home directory via NFS.

Edit: /etc/auto.master

Add:

/home /etc/auto.home

Edit: /etc/auto.home

Add:

*    nfs.example.com:/home/&

Once you are at this point you should be able to login and test.
