the right place to mount media and other PCs over nfs is a pissing contest
        - root should NOT be mounting anything temporarily 

        - automounters has its own mountpoints

        - users should be mounting things consistently, so that
        tom/dick and harry cn find where you mounted stuff

                /usr/local
                /var/spool/mail
                /var/www
                /home
        
                all can be mounted in its expected location
                or mounted anywhere else ( /mnt/local, /mnt/home, .. )

- add the additional mounting fun for
        mounting *.i386 binaries ( generic )
        mounting *.i686 binaries ( p4 )
        mounting *.amd binaries
        mounting *.emt-64 binaries
        mounting *.sun3
        mounting *.sun4
        ...


        ie use /usr/local.`uname -m`

i mount everything under /mnt because ALL pcs is the same ...
and anythign is considered local to the disk/PC itself and NOT
mounted from anywhere else
        /mnt/floppy
        /mnt/dvd
        /mnt/cdrom
        /mnt/Win98
        /mnt/Win2K
        ...

and anything that is automounted is mounted under it's own /.autofs
with symlinks to provide:
        /n/Win98
        /n/Win2K
        /n/Mail
        /n/Web
        /n/home
        ...
