automount2amd
=============

   A script to convert old Sun Automounter maps to Amd maps.

   Say you have the Sun automount file auto.foo, with these two lines:
     home                  earth:/home
     moon  -ro,intr        server:/proj/images
   Running
     automount2amd auto.foo > amd.foo

   will produce the Amd map amd.foo with this content:

     # generated by automount2amd on Sat Aug 14 17:59:32 US/Eastern 1999
     
     /defaults \\
       type:=nfs;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,utimeout=600
     
     home \
       host==earth;type:=link;fs:=/home \\
       rhost:=earth;rfs:=/home
     
     moon \
       -addopts:=ro,intr \\
       host==server;type:=link;fs:=/proj/images \\
       rhost:=server;rfs:=/proj/images

   This perl script will use the following /default entry
     type:=nfs;opts:=rw,grpid,nosuid,utimeout=600
   If you wish to override that, define the $DEFAULTS environment
variable, or modify the script.

   If you wish to generate Amd maps using the hostd (Note: hostd
Selector Variable) Amd map syntax, then define the environment
variable $DOMAIN or modify the script.

   Note that automount2amd does not understand newer Sun Automount map
syntax, those used by autofs.
