[PLUG] amd: needed or not?

  According to the amd man page it will automatically mount a filesystem
when a file on that system is requested for a read, write or execute. I have
already mounted all the filesystems here, and the transient devices of
floppy and cdrom, are mountable by users.

  Do I need amd running?

  I ask because I'm now seeing entries in /var/log/messages regarding
reloads of map /etc/amd.net and I've not seen those messages before.

Thanks,

Rich
