File Formats                                            autofs(4)



NAME
     autofs - file containing  parameter  values  for  automountd
     daemon and automount command

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/default/autofs

DESCRIPTION
     The autofs file resides in directory /etc/default  and  sup-
     plies  default  parameters for the automountd(1M) daemon and
     the automount(1M) command.

     The autofs file format is ASCII; comment  lines  begin  with
     the  crosshatch  (#) character. Parameters consist of a key-
     word followed by an equal sign  followed  by  the  parameter
     value, of the form:

     keyword=value

     As shipped, the parameters in the autofs file are  commented
     out.  As  root,  you  must uncomment a keyword-value line to
     make the value for that parameter take effect.

     Administrators can make changes to  the  startup  parameters
     for  automountd by logging in as root and editing the autofs
     file. Changes made to autofs values on an automount or auto-
     mountd  command line override values in /etc/default/autofs.
     The /etc/default/autofs file is preserved  across  operating
     system upgrades.

     The following parameters  are  currently  supported  in  the
     autofs file:

     AUTOMOUNT_TIMEOUT=<num>

         Specifies a duration, in seconds, that a file system  is
         to  remain mounted when not in use. The default value is
         600 (10 minutes). Equivalent to the -t option  in  auto-
         mount.



     AUTOMOUNT_VERBOSE=TRUE | FALSE

         Verbose mode. Causes you to be notified of  non-critical
         events, suchs as autofs mounts and unmounts. The default
         value is FALSE. Equivalent to the  -v  option  in  auto-
         mount.

File Formats                                            autofs(4)



     AUTOMOUNTD_VERBOSE=TRUE | FALSE

         Verbose mode. Causes status messages  to  be  logged  to
         /var/svc/log/system-filesystem-autofs:default.log.  (See
         smf(5).) The default value is FALSE. Equivalent  to  the
         -v option in automountd.



     AUTOMOUNTD_NOBROWSE=<num>

         Turn on or off browsing for all autofs mount points. The
         default  value  is FALSE. Equivalent to the -n option in
         automountd.



     AUTOMOUNTD_TRACE=<num>

         Expands   each    RPC    call    and    logs    it    to
         /var/svc/log/system-filesystem-autofs:default.log.  (See
         smf(5).) The default value, 0, turns off  such  tracing.
         Starting  with  1, with each higher value, the verbosity
         of trace output increases.



     AUTOMOUNTD_ENV=<name>=<value>

         Environment variables. Each  environment  variable-value
         pairing  must be on its own line. You can specify multi-
         ple such pairings. There  are  no  environment  variable
         settings supplied. For example: AUTOMOUNTD_ENV=DAY=TUES
