Can anyone explain to me what's the benefit of FedFS over regular autofs? I mean, I can already store autofs maps in LDAP, and the mounting is transparent to userspace. What's the point of FedFS? It seems to be able to do just that, but only for NFS4.

From the link:
> Fedfs is, in many ways, an addition of automount functionality along the line of something that I believe (as the autofs maintainer both upstream and here in Fedora) has been needed for a long time. That is a distributed autofs mount map resource manager and while fedfs isn't quite what I envisioned for autofs the functionality it provides is fairly close. Just how far integration with autofs will go isn't clear yet.
