56.4 NFS Auto Mounting
Install autofs:
This will create the relevant files in /var/autofs
with
default configuration file /etc/auto.master
which references
/etc/auto.misc
and /etc/auto.net
. You may want to

/etc/auto.ktnet
with something like:
Then edit /etc/auto.master
to include just this file:
Restart the autofs server:
Assuming NFS is set up appropriately, this will now automatically
mount /var/autofs/ktnet/athens
from the host athene
whenever that folder is accessed.
