+ <heading>How do I set up <tt/amd/ to automatically mount devices?
+ </heading>
+
+ <p><url url="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?amd" name="amd"> is a daemon that
+ can automatically mount disks when they are accessed.
+ Placing removable devices like CDROMs and floppies simplifies their use, since
+ they don't have to be explicitly dismounted before removal.</p>
+
+ <p>The <tt/amd/ configuration file, called a map, is in /etc/amd.map by default. <tt/amd/
+ is enabled in /etc/rc.conf. <tt/amd/ maps are powerful, but are complex and not well documented
.</p>
+
+ <p>To set up <tt/amd/:
+ <enum>
+ <item>Modify /etc/fstab and change the mountpoints for the devices you want automounted so
+ they are mounted under /mnt. For example, change the /cdrom mountpoint to /mnt/cdrom.
+ <item>Create directory /a.
+ <item>Modify /etc/rc.conf and set the following:
+ <verb>
+ amd_enable="YES
+ amd_flags="-c 1800 -k i386 -l syslog /a /etc/amd.map"
+ </verb>
+ <item>Insert the following map, provided by Scott Mitchell
+ <<url url="mailto:scott@dcs.qmw.ac.uk" name="scott@dcs.qmw.ac.uk">>:
+
+ <verb>
+ /defaults type:=host;fs:=${autodir}/${rhost};rhost:=${key}
+ * opts:=rw,grpid,resvport,nfsv2
+
+ cdrom type:=program;\
+ fs:=/mnt/cdrom;\
+ mount:="/sbin/mount mount /mnt/cdrom";\
+ unmount:="/sbin/umount umount /mnt/cdrom"
+
+ floppy type:=program;\
+ fs:=/mnt/floppy\
+ mount:="/sbin/mount mount /mnt/floppy";\
+ unmount:="/sbin/umount umount /mnt/floppy"
+
+ msdos type:=program;\
+ fs:=/mnt/msdos;\
+ mount:="/sbin/mount_msdos mount_msdos /mnt/msdos";\
+ unmount:="/sbin/umount umount /mnt/msdos"
+</verb>
+
+ <item>If desired, symlink /a/cdrom to /cdrom.
+ <item>Reboot the system or start <tt/amd/ manually.
+ </enum>+ </p>
+ <p>Now to access filesystems served by amd, just access them under /a, ie
+ <tt>cd /a/cdrom</tt> will cause the CDROM to be mounted. After approximately
+ five minutes, the CD will be automatically unmounted. If you want to unmount
+ a filesystem early, use the command <tt>amq -u /a/cdrom</tt> to unmount it.</p>
+
+ <p>Although more complex, <tt/amd/ can be set up to automatically mount
+ NFS volumes.</p>

+ <heading>su's complaining about "kerberos not in root's ACL." What's up?
+ </heading>
+
+ <p>At some point you installed the kerberos distribution from the install set.
+ You can run su with the -k option to quiet the message. If you want to fix it permanently,
+ though, you'll need to reinstall the bin distribution (and the des distribution if you
+ installed it previously and want your passwords to work).
+ </p>
+
+ <p>Kerberos is a distributed authentication system.

+ To enable Plug & Play support, compile a new kernel with <tt/controller pnp0/ in

+ of all the devices it finds. Copy the PnP ID from the modem to the table in
+ <tt>/sys/i386/isa/sio.c</tt>, at about line 1200. Look for the string "SUP1310"
+ in the structure "siopnp_ids[]" to
+ find the table. Build the kernel again, install, reboot, and your modem should be found.</p>
+
+ <p>You may have to manually configure the PnP devices using the `pnp' command in the
+ boot-time configuration with a command like
+ <verb>
