	help
	   The automounter is a tool to automatically mount remote file systems
	   on demand. This implementation is partially kernel-based to reduce
	   overhead in the already-mounted case; this is unlike the BSD
	   automounter (amd), which is a pure user space daemon.

	   To use the automounter you need the user-space tools from
	   <https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/daemons/autofs/>; you also want
	   to answer Y to "NFS file system support", below.

	   To compile this support as a module, choose M here: the module will be
	   called autofs.

	   If you are not a part of a fairly large, distributed network or
	   don't have a laptop which needs to dynamically reconfigure to the
	   local network, you probably do not need an automounter, and can say
	   N here.
