update autofs mounts

options] |
When called without options, the automount
command
parses the auto_master(5)
configuration file and any direct maps that it references, and mounts or
unmounts autofs(5) file systems
to match. These options are available:
-c
- Flush caches, discarding possibly stale information obtained from maps and
directory services.
-D
- Define a variable. It is only useful with
-L
.
-f
- Force unmount, to be used with
-u
.
-L
- Do not mount or unmount anything. Instead parse
auto_master(5) and any
direct maps, then print them to standard output. When specified more than
once, all the maps, including indirect ones, will be parsed and shown.
This is useful when debugging configuration problems.
-o
- Specify mount options to be used along with the ones specified in the
maps. It is only useful with
-L
.
-u
- Try to unmount file systems mounted by
automountd(8).
autofs(5) mounts are not
unmounted. To unmount all
autofs(5) mounts, use
umount -At autofs
.
-v
- Increase verbosity.
The automount
utility exits 0 on success,
and >0 if an error occurs.
