MOUNT_AUTOFS(8) DragonFly System Manager's Manual MOUNT_AUTOFS(8)
NAME
mount_autofs - mount autofs
SYNOPSIS
mount_autofs [-f from] [-o options] [-O master_options]
[-p master_prefix] autofs mount_point
DESCRIPTION
The mount_autofs command should not usually be called by admins. Use
automount(8) instead. autofs(5) is mountable using automount(8), which
incorporates an auto_master(5) parser, without having to specify
autofs(5) mount options via command line.
The mount_autofs command attaches the automounter filesystem on the
autofs device on to the file system tree at point mount_point. Both
autofs and mount_point are converted to absolute paths before use.
This command is normally executed by automount(8). The options are as
follows:
-f Set the from location for autofs(5). This argument is usually
read from /etc/auto_master by automount(8).
-o Set the mount options. See the mount(8) man page for possible
options and their meanings.
-O Set the autofs(5) options. See the [-options] in AUTO_MASTER
SYNTAX of auto_master(5).
-p Set the autofs(5) prefix, below which the file system(s) will be
mounted.
