2 tristate "Kernel automounter version 4 support (also supports v3)"
3 help
4 The automounter is a tool to automatically mount remote file systems
5 on demand. This implementation is partially kernel-based to reduce
6 overhead in the already-mounted case; this is unlike the BSD
7 automounter (amd), which is a pure user space daemon.
8
9 To use the automounter you need the user-space tools from
10 <ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/autofs/v4/>; you also
11 want to answer Y to "NFS file system support", below.
12
13 To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be
14 called autofs4. You will need to add "alias autofs autofs4" to your
15 modules configuration file.
16
17 If you are not a part of a fairly large, distributed network or
18 don't have a laptop which needs to dynamically reconfigure to the
19 local network, you probably do not need an automounter, and can say
20 N here.
