It uses local files or name service maps to locate filesystems to be mounted. These maps are described with the aaaauuuuttttooooffffssss(1M) command. The _a_u_t_o_f_s_d daemon is started during system initialization from the /_e_t_c/_i_n_i_t._d/_n_e_t_w_o_r_k script if the configuration flags nnnnffffssss and aaaauuuuttttooooffffssss are set oooonnnn. Type the following commands as superuser to enable AAAAuuuuttttooooFFFFSSSS: _////_eeee_tttt_cccc_////_cccc_hhhh_kkkk_cccc_oooo_nnnn_ffff_iiii_gggg _nnnn_ffff_ssss _oooo_nnnn _////_eeee_tttt_cccc_////_cccc_hhhh_kkkk_cccc_oooo_nnnn_ffff_iiii_gggg _aaaa_uuuu_tttt_oooo_ffff_ssss _oooo_nnnn Rebooting invokes the _a_u_t_o_f_s command and start the _a_u_t_o_f_s_d daemon with the options contained in the file /_e_t_c/_c_o_n_f_i_g/_a_u_t_o_f_s._o_p_t_i_o_n_s. The _a_u_t_o_f_s command passes mount point configuration information found in the file /_e_t_c/_a_u_t_o__m_a_s_t_e_r to _a_u_t_o_f_s_d. Do not kill _a_u_t_o_f_s_d to change the AAAAuuuuttttooooFFFFSSSS configuration. Run the _a_u_t_o_f_s command to cause changes in the configuration maps to take affect. OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS ----vvvv Verbose. Log status messages to the console. ----TTTT Trace. Expand each RPC call and display it on the standard output. ----pppp _p_r_i_o_r_i_t_y Set the _p_r_i_o_r_i_t_y of the daemon process. The daemon will run at the priority specified, with a scheduling policy of _S_C_H_E_D__T_S. The default priority is 30. ----ttttpppp _d_u_r_a_t_i_o_n Specify the _d_u_r_a_t_i_o_n, in seconds, that the results of a probe of a server's availability will remain cached. The default is 5 seconds. ----DDDD _n_a_m_e====_v_a_l_u_e Assign _v_a_l_u_e to the indicated AAAAuuuuttttooooFFFFSSSS map substitution variable. These assignments cannot be used to substitute variables in the master map, _a_u_t_o__m_a_s_t_e_r. ----mmmm _m_a_x_t_h_r_e_a_d_s Set the maximum number of threads that _a_u_t_o_f_s_d will create to handle autofs mount or unmount requests. _a_u_t_o_f_s_d will create the threads only when needed. At this time the user cannot specify a number greater than 16 for _m_a_x_t_h_r_e_a_d_s. The default is to run autofsd multi-threaded with the maximum, 16 threads. Setting this option to the value 1 will cause autofsd to run as a single threaded PPPPaaaaggggeeee 1111 aaaauuuuttttooooffffssssdddd((((1111MMMM)))) aaaauuuuttttooooffffssssdddd((((1111MMMM)))) process. ----EEEE _u_s_e_r _a_u_t_o_f_s_d will first do a setuid to the specified _u_s_e_r before executing any autofs maps. This is done for security reasons, to allow the system administrator to specify that autofsd should execute autofs maps, if any, as a user who does not have any superuser privileges. ----PPPP _t_c_p|_u_d_p _a_u_t_o_f_s_d will default to do all nfs mounts with the IP protocol specified here. The user can override the protocol specified here by using the _p_r_o_t_o=_x_y_z mount option in the autofs maps. The currently allowed options are only tcp and udp. If this (-_P) option is not used, the default is to do all nfs mounts with udp. If the tcp option is specified and the remote nfs server does not support nfs over tcp, autofsd will retry the mount over udp.
