If I'm not mistaken, the direct method should work for what you are aiming at. For example, you have the following line in /etc/auto.master: /- /etc/auto.direct Then /etc/auto.direct has : /home/user1 You can create a local directory /home/user2 in addition to /home/user1 . The latter will be automounted but the former is your local directory.
