I have to mount NIS maps with entries like:
---cut
local host==nets1;type:=link;fs:=/iss/local1 \
host!=nets1;os!=linux;type:=nfs;fs:=${autodir}/${key};rhost:=nets1;rfs:=/iss/local1;opts:=rw,bg
\
host!=nets1;os==linux;type:=nfs;fs:=${autodir}/${key};rhost:=nets1;rfs:=/iss/local1;opts:=rw,bg,rsize=8192,wsize=16384
Linux type:=link;fs:=/vlsi/local/${key}
--end cut (some lines have been broken by the email program)
The mounts are mounts with conditional options, which can be interpreted by a
'program script' and the shortcut links like 'Linux' are supposed to be
automounted symbolic links. Therefore, the nfs server has only one
open connection to each linpc - this reduces some kind of system load on the nfs
server. For the client it is probably not of relevance.
Can you provide me with a link to additional information regarding
'vfsbinds'?
