SubjectUpdates to autofs
Hi all,

I've been working on autofs lately to add some features, most notably the
ability to automount whole trees of filesystems, including constructing
skeleton directory trees for mountpoints if necessary. There's a demonstration
of how to do Solaris-like nfs automounting in samples/auto.net.

I've also cleaned things up, like using dentries directly in the autofs
filesystem for keeping state.

I have a set of patches for the kernel code (ver 2.2.5) and for the daemon
(against 3.1.3). Patches and a more detailed description of my changes are
available at http://www.goop.org/~jeremy/autofs.html.

I've been using this code for a while now and it seems stable, but it is quite
new so there could still be problems. Tell me how it works for you, bug
reports, comments, suggestions, etc.

J
