I use hard coded /Net/Servers
to be able to do standard /net/<hostname> stuff
/etc/auto.misc
server1 -fstype=nfs,soft,intr server1:/export
server2 -fstype=nfs,soft,intr server2:/export
server3 -fstype=nfs,soft,intr server3:/export
cd /Net ;
ln -s /.autofs/server1 .
ln -s /.autofs/server2 .
ln -s /.autofs/server3 .
diff /Net/server1/etc/passwd /Net/Backup/etc/passwd
- nice to have more than one solution for all unix problems...
have fun
