Amq `-P' option
---------------

   Contact an alternate running Amd that had registered itself on a
different RPC PROGRAM_NUMBER and apply all other operations to that
instance of the automounter.  This is useful when you run multiple
copies of Amd, and need to manage each one separately.  If not
specified, Amq will use the default program number for Amd, 300019.
For security reasons, the only alternate program numbers Amd can use
range from 300019 to 300029, inclusive.

   For example, to kill an alternate running Amd:

     kill `amq -p -P 300020`
