Looks like the above all need to be on one line, or at least one logical line

/etc/auto.net frodo produces:
-fstype=nfs,.....  \
   /public frodo:/public \
   /other frodo:/other \
   /yetanother frodo:/yetanother

Where each line but the last ends with a \ which I guess nullifies the newline.

I'm not sure that I really want to automount everything that the
server is exporting.
