Hi,

we have a problem with NFS mounted directories, that are mounted using
the automount daemon.  Some of the users' home directories are on a
remote machine, and they are mounted using an indirect automount map.
How does one backup these directories from an AIX client?  The AIX
client does not support the AUTOMOUNT option, and the VIRTUALMOUNTPOINT
and FOLLOWSYMBOLIC options seem to work for local filesystems only.

What is the solution here?

Thanks,
