If you are planning on having distributed NFS automounter files, the automounter maps in the /etc directory on each NIS client must contain entries that reference the automounter maps on the NIS master server.
The contents of an NIS map can be included in an automounter map using an entry of the form ``+mapname'' in the automounter map on the NIS client. mapname is the name of the NIS map to be included at that point in the automounter map.
For example, to include the contents of the map auto.master on the NIS master server within the automounter master map on an NIS client, add an entry that specifies ``+auto.master'' in the /etc/auto.master file on the NIS client. To include the contents of the NIS map auto.home, add an entry that specifies ``+auto.home'' in the /etc/auto.home file on the NIS client.
For more information about the automounter and the automounter's auto.master and auto.home maps, see ``Using the NFS automounter''.
