            Bug ID: 192861
           Summary: autofs should use bind mount on localhost
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: davidjx8p at gmail.com

The new AutoFS system added into FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT recently is working well.

However, I'd suggest that if the address of the computer specified in a map
resolves to 127.0.0.1 (localhost), as with an entry like the following:

user localhost:/export/home/&

then the automount daemon should not attempt to mount with NFS type, but
rather, do a nullfs mount of the relevant directory onto the relevant
mountpoint.
