In this example, 184 the file, <filename>/etc/auto.misc</filename>, has a line:</para> 185 186 <screen>cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom</screen> 187 188 <para>that will mount a cdrom as <filename>/media/auto/cd</filename> if 189 that directory is accessed. The <option>--ghost</option> option tells 190 the automounter to create "ghost" versions (i.e. empty directories) of 191 all the mount points listed in the configuration file regardless of 192 whether any of the file systems is actually mounted or not. This is very 193 convenient and highly recommended, because it will show you the available 194 auto-mountable file systems as existing directories, even when their file 195 systems aren't currently mounted. Without the <option>--ghost</option> 196 option, you'll have to remember the names of the directories. As soon as 197 you try to access one of them, the directory will be created and the file 198 system will be mounted. When the file system gets unmounted again, the 199 directory is destroyed too, unless the <option>--ghost</option> option 200 was given.</para> 201 181 202 <note> 182 203 183 <para>This file mounts a new media directory but is not visible until 184 it is automounted by autofs. An alternative method would be to 185 automount into another location such as 186 <filename>/var/lib/autofs/cdrom</filename> and create a sysbolic 187 link from <filename>/media/cdrom</filename> to the other 204 <para>An alternative method would be to specify another automount 205 location such as <filename>/var/lib/auto/cdrom</filename> and create a 206 symbolic link from <filename>/media/cdrom</filename> to the automount 188 207 location.</para> 189 208 190 209 </note> 191 210 192 <para>While this package could be used to mount NFS shares and SMB 193 shares, that feature is not configured in these instructions. NFS shares 194 are covered on the next page.</para> 195 196 <para>The <filename>auto.misc</filename> must be configured to your 211 <para>The <filename>auto.misc</filename> file must be configured to your 197 212 working hardware. The loaded configuration file should load your cdrom 198 213 if <filename>/dev/cdrom</filename> is active or it can be edited to 199 match your device setup and examples for floppies are available in the file214 match your device setup. Examples for floppies are available in the file 200 215 and easily activated. Documentation for this file is available using the 201 216 <command>man 5 autofs</command> command.</para> 217 218 <para>In the second line, if enabled, a user's home directory would be 219 mounted via NFS upon login. The <filename>/etc/home.auto</filename> 220 would need to exist and have an entry similar to:</para> 221 222 <screen>joe example.org:/export/home/joe</screen> 223 224 <para>where the directory <filename>/export/home/joe</filename> is 225 exported via NFS from the system example.org. NFS shares 226 are covered on the next page.</para> 227 228 <para>This package could also be used to mount SMB shares, that feature 229 is not configured in these instructions.
