{\bf amd}, {\em $\acute{e}$i$\acute{e}$md$\acute{\imath}$:},
a program providing an automounting service
[fr. {\em A}uto{\em M}ount {\em D}aemon]\par
{\bf automount}, {\em \"{o}'t\={o}-mownt, v.i.}
to mount a filesystem automatically
[Gr.\ {\em automatos}, self-moving $+$ \Unix\ {\bf mount}(2)]%---L.
%{\em m\={o}ns, montis}, mountain]
}
\par\mbox{}\par

An {\em automounter} maintains a cache of mounted filesystems.
Filesystems are mounted on demand when they are first referenced,
and unmounted after a period of inactivity.
\par\mbox{}\par

\Amd\ may be used as a replacement for Sun's automounter.
The choice of which filesystem to mount can be controlled dynamically
with {\em selectors}.
Selectors allow decisions of the form
``hostname is {\em this}\,'' or ``architecture is not {\em that}.''
Selectors may be combined arbitrarily.
\Amd\ also supports a variety of filesystem types,
including \NFS, \UFS\ and the novel {\em program}
filesystem.
The combination of selectors and multiple filesystem types allows
identical configuration files to be used on all machines so
reducing the administrative overhead.

\Amd\ ensures that it will not hang if a remote server
goes down.  Moreover, \amd\ can determine when a remote
server has become inaccessible and then mount replacement
filesystems as and when they become available.
\par\mbox{}\par
\Amd\ contains no proprietary source code and
has been ported to numerous flavours of \Unix.
