Hello,
You may have quite the same effect than autofs with AMD(8) on FreeBSD.
There was a very recently post with a good solution with AMD (if the ML archives are down, have a look at dejanews)

Subject: autofs for FreeBSD ?
Hi,
I use -CURRENT and have a strong dislike for automount (as opposed
to autofs which is much nicer).
Reasons (in no particular order):
- it looks yucky
- make world doesn't work when /usr/src and /usr/obj are actually
links to /a/blah/blah
- it makes FreeBSD look quite primitive in comparison to Solaris
(the competitor in my workplace).
Question:
- Is there autofs for FreeBSD ?
- If yes, are there any pointers on setting it up anywhere ?
Sorry to ask here, but the searching of the mailing lists is still
down:

P.S. FreeBSD rocks!
