The QUESTION was how does one specify the syntax for an indirect automount map
for unconventionally named (typically non-unix) filesystems that are exported
via NFS ie:
sun# showmount -e some_os
j:\ordure (everyone)
m:\conasse (everyone)
The ANSWER is to set up /etc/auto_other as follows:
localordure some_os:"j:\ordure"
localcon some_os:"m:\conasse"
and of course put this in your /etc/auto_master:
/opt auto_opt
..
/other auto_other
The double quotes are key.
Hope I didn't offend many with my colorful phraseology.
