Ok, I've spent a couple of hours trying to get autofs to do the simple task of
mounting my file server's nfs filesystems. With amd in the past all I needed
to do was to create symlinks like this in /:

lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel    20 Apr 22  2019 work -> host/vader/stor/work

Been doing that for years and it did exactly what I needed. I see that autofs
adds lots of features (which I don't need) but the added complexity that comes
with the added features (and the seemingly obscure documentation) has really
made this much more difficult to understand.

So, can someone help me understand how I would achieve the above result with
autofs?

Thanks,
Bob
