Set the sharenfs property on the filesystems and use the automounter
on the client.


Damn. We are hoping to move away from automounters and maintenance of
such (we use NeoPath, for example, for virtual aggregation of the
paths).

I don't know what NeoPath is but automounts are trivial or at least
easy to maintain even for very large sites.  You are using path wildcards
and DNS aliases, yes?

In the NAS world, sometimes automounts are not available. So,
if this is true, you'll likely need to count me as one of those people
who says we can't make a filesystem per user, and give us user quotas
now please :)

I don't understand.  If an automount is not available, how is that
different than the nfs server itself not being available.  Or do you
mean some clients do not have an automounter.
