[Gluster-users] Mounting a sub directory of a glusterfs volume

[Keith Freedman]

well. you should be able to mount the gluster volume and have autofs 
"bind" the users subdirectory like it does with an nfs mount possibly?
my automount is rusty, so I may be off base here.
but basically treat the local gluster mount as the "server" for autofs.
