- The automounter is a tool to automatically mount remote file systems
- on demand. This implementation is partially kernel-based to reduce
- overhead in the already-mounted case; this is unlike the BSD
- automounter (amd), which is a pure user space daemon.
- To use the automounter you need the user-space tools from
- <https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/autofs/>; you also want
- to answer Y to "NFS file system support", below.
- To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be
- called autofs.
- If you are not a part of a fairly large, distributed network or
- don't have a laptop which needs to dynamically reconfigure to the
- local network, you probably do not need an automounter, and can say
- N here.
