The last sentence is still out there on its own in hyperspace.
How about this shade of bikeshed

 "autofs is a kernel-based automounter for Linux. autofs is used to 
  automatically mount filesystems on demand. After a period of inactivity
  set by a predefined timeout value, the auto-mounts will be unmounted. 
  autofs allows one to provide centrally-managed, consistent file path
  names for users and applications, even in large, frequently changing
  installations."
