Whats new with remote mounts and the automounter?
HP-UX 10.00 and later ships with an automounter running with a -hosts option, so it’s easy to just say “/net/hostname/directory/…”, and the automounter will do the rest. If you like, you can put symbolic links in to make things easier, for example: /x1 -> /net/x1/x1 /usr/valid -> /net/x1/valid While this is convenient and easy to do, using explicit automount maps (ex: /home/username) is usually a better idea in terms of keeping things “tight” and maintaining server/disk independance.
