Hesiod maps
-----------
When the map name begins with the string `hesiod.' lookups are made
using the "Hesiod" name server. The string following the dot is used
as a name qualifier and is prepended with the key being located. The
entire string is then resolved in the `automount' context. For
example, if the the key is `jsp' and map name is `hesiod.homes' then
"Hesiod" is asked to resolve `jsp.homes.automount'.
Hesiod maps do not support cache mode `all' and, when caching is
enabled, have a default cache mode of `inc' (*note Automount
Filesystem::.).
The following is an example of a "Hesiod" map entry:
jsp.homes.automount HS TXT "rfs:=/home/charm;rhost:=charm;sublink:=jsp"
njw.homes.automount HS TXT "rfs:=/home/dylan/dk2;rhost:=dylan;sublink:=njw"
