The 35default is 10 minutes (600 seconds). 36This is equivalent to the 37.Fl t 38option in 39.Xr automount 8 . 40.It Dv AUTOMOUNT_VERBOSE 41.Li TRUE 42or 43.Li FALSE ; 44if 45.Li TRUE , 46.Xr automount 8 47will print more detailed information about the actions it takes. 48This is equivalent to the 49.Fl v 50option to 51.Xr automount 8 . 52.It Dv AUTOMOUNTD_VERBOSE 53.Li TRUE 54or 55.Li FALSE ; 56if 57.Li TRUE , 58.Xr automountd 8 59will log to 60.Xr syslogd 8 61more detailed information about the actions it takes. 62This is equivalent to the 63.Fl v 64option to 65.Xr automountd 8 . 66.It Dv AUTOMOUNTD_NOBROWSE 67.Li TRUE 68or 69.Li FALSE ; 70if 71.Li TRUE , 72.Xr automountd 8 73will disable browsing of all maps. 74This is equivalent to the 75.Fl n 76option to 77.Xr automountd 8 . 78.It Dv AUTOMOUNTD_TRACE 79The trace level for logging information about requests received by 80.Xr automountd 8 81from autofs, processing done for those requests, and replies sent to 82autofs. 83The default level of 84.Li 0 85causes no information to be logged; each higher value causes more 86information to be logged. 87This controls the same trace level that the 88.Fl T 89option to 90.Xr automountd 8 91controls. 92The trace is logged to /var/log/system.log 93.It Dv AUTOMOUNTD_MNTOPTS 94A string containing a comma-separated list of mount options 95that will be applied, by default, to all mounts done by 96.Xr automountd 8 . 97The options for a particular mount can override these options. 98This controls the same options that the 99.Fl o 100option to 101.Xr automountd 8 102.It Dv AUTOMOUNTD_NOSUID 103.Li TRUE 104or 105.Li FALSE ; 106if 107.Li TRUE , 108.Xr automountd 8 109will force all mounts to have the "nosuid" mount option set. 110.It Dv AUTOMOUNTD_ENV 111A string of the form 112.D1 Va name Ns = Ns Va value 113that causes the environment variable 114.Va name 115to be set to the value 116.Va value 117in 118.Xr automountd 8 . 119Environment variables can be referred to in map entries; the value of 120the environment variable is substituted for the reference to the 121variable. 122This is equivalent to the 123.Fl D 124option to 125.Xr automountd 8 . 126.El 127.Sh FILES 128.Bl -tag -width /etc/autofs.conf -compact 129.It Pa /etc/autofs.conf 130This file. 131.El 132.Sh SEE ALSO 133.Xr auto_master 5 , 134.Xr automount 8 , 135.Xr automountd 8 136
