Chapter 13, Configuring the NFS automounter
A line of the form +mapname causes automount to consult the mentioned map as if it were included in the current map. If mapname is a relative pathname (not beginning with a slash), automount assumes it is an NIS map. If the pathname is an absolute pathname, automount looks for a local map of that name. For instance, you can have a few entries in your local auto.home map for the most commonly accessed home directories and follow them with the included NIS map: tokyo -r &:/home/& milan -r &:/export/home +auto.homeAfter consulting the included map, automount continues scanning the current map so you can add more entries: tokyo -r &:/home/& milan -r &:/export/home +auto.homeFinally, the map included can be a local file or even a built-in map. If the map name starts with a dash (-), automount consults the appropriate built-in map (see the ``Using built-in automount maps'' section in this chapter for more details on built-in maps).
