-      <para>The automatic mounter daemon,
-	<application>amd</application>, automatically mounts a remote
-	file system whenever a file or directory within that file
-	system is accessed.  File systems that are inactive for a
-	period of time will be automatically unmounted by
-	<application>amd</application>.</para>
-
-      <para>This daemon provides an alternative to modifying
-	<filename>/etc/fstab</filename> to list every client.  It
-	operates by attaching itself as an  <acronym>NFS</acronym>
-	server to the <filename>/host</filename> and
-	<filename>/net</filename> directories.  When a file is
-	accessed within one of these directories,
-	<application>amd</application> looks up the corresponding
-	remote mount and automatically mounts it.
-	<filename>/net</filename> is used to mount an exported file
-	system from an <acronym>IP</acronym> address while
-	<filename>/host</filename> is used to mount an export from a
-	remote hostname.  For instance, an attempt to access a file
-	within <filename>/host/foobar/usr</filename> would tell
-	<application>amd</application> to mount the
-	<filename>/usr</filename> export on the host
-	<systemitem>foobar</systemitem>.</para>
-
-      <example>
-	<title>Mounting an Export with
-	  <application>amd</application></title>
-
-	<para>In this example, <command>showmount -e</command> shows
-	  the exported file systems that can be mounted from the
-	  <acronym>NFS</acronym> server,
-	  <systemitem>foobar</systemitem>:</para>
-
-	<screen>&prompt.user; <userinput>showmount -e foobar</userinput>
-Exports list on foobar:
-/usr                               10.10.10.0
-/a                                 10.10.10.0
-&prompt.user; <userinput>cd /host/foobar/usr</userinput></screen>
-      </example>
-
-      <para>The output from <command>showmount</command> shows
-	<filename>/usr</filename> as an export.  When changing
-	directories to <filename>/host/foobar/usr</filename>,
-	<application>amd</application> intercepts the request and
-	attempts to resolve the hostname
-	<systemitem>foobar</systemitem>.  If successful,
-	<application>amd</application> automatically mounts the
-	desired export.</para>
-
-      <para>To enable <application>amd</application> at boot time, add
-	this line to <filename>/etc/rc.conf</filename>:</para>
-
-      <programlisting>amd_enable="YES"</programlisting>
-
-      <para>To start <application>amd</application> now:</para>
-
-      <screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>service amd start</userinput></screen>
-
-      <para>Custom flags can be passed to
-	<application>amd</application> from the
-	<varname>amd_flags</varname> environment variable.  By
-	default, <varname>amd_flags</varname> is set to:</para>
-
-      <programlisting>amd_flags="-a /.amd_mnt -l syslog /host /etc/amd.map /net /etc/amd.map"</programlisting>
-
-      <para>The default options with which exports are mounted are
-	defined in <filename>/etc/amd.map</filename>.  Some of the
-	more advanced features of <application>amd</application> are
-	defined in <filename>/etc/amd.conf</filename>.</para>
