There is an article on this:

http://ezine.daemonnews.org/200202/automounting.html

Maybe you'll get it to work. I tried it myself once a couple of years 
ago and I just couldn't get it to work reliably. I admin several FreeBSD 
servers and all kinds of stuff you might expect to run on it: mail 
services, web services, ftp, database etc, and I don't think I'm 
particularily stupid when it comes to installing/configuring open source 
software. However, I just couldn't grasp the concepts behind this 
automounting stuff. Finally, when I quit trying to understand it and 
just blindly followed the article to the letter, I got it working 
somehow, but there were still issues (the details of which I've 
forgotten by now).

Hope you have better luck.
