11 specifies the NIS (or YP) map from which the server for the user's
12 home directory should be extracted. At present, only the Sun
13 auto.home map format is understood. The form of the map is:</para>
15 <para><command moreinfo="none">username server:/some/file/system</command></para>
17 <para>and the program will extract the servername from before
18 the first ':'. There should probably be a better parsing system
19 that copes with different map formats and also Amd (another
20 automounter) maps.</para>
