Which THREE statements concerning automounter are true?

A.
The autofs service does not need to be restarted after changing automounter map files

B.
Only one entry in master map can refer to each map file

C.
The automounter service does not rely on the kernel configuration

D.
For each entry in auto.master, a separate automounter daemon is started

E.
Changes to auto.master require automounter to reload its configuration

Explanation:

From the man pages:
autofs will consult a configuration file /etc/auto.master (see auto.master(5)) to find mount points on
the system. For each of those mount points a automount(8) process is started with the appropriate
parameters. You can check the active mount points for the automounter with the /etc/init.d/autofs
status command. After the auto.master configuration file is processed the autofs script will check
for an NIS map with the same name. If such a map exists then that map will be processed in the
same way as the auto.master map. The NIS map will be processed last. /etc/init.d/autofs reload

will check the current auto.master map against running daemons. It will kill those daemons whose
entries have changed and then start daemons for new or changed entries. If a map is modified
then the change will become effective immediately. If the auto. master map is modified then the
autofs script must be rerun to activate the changes. /etc/init.d/autofs status will display the current
configuration and a list of currently running automount daemons.
