The Solaris style /net feature is that you can cd/ls/etc. into the /net directory using the hostname, and it will probe that hostname for any exports, and then automount those exports. In your auto.net, you added all the hostnames that you wanted. The /net feature in autofs4 will automatically get these. Thus, you could cd /net/Foxy and see everything that Foxy is exporting. When you add a new machine (e.g. blah), you don't have to add an entry to auto.net for blah, you just cd /net/blah and it will automount the exported directories. Forrest
