Once a user's volume is created, an administrator creates a mount link
(i.e. cfs mkm /coda/my.realm/home/<user> <uservolumename>)

This stores the mount information in the file system and from that point
anyone can go to /coda/my.realm/home/<user> and their Coda client will
see the mounlink, perform a lookup for the volume and automatically
mount the new volume. So automounting is already built into the system
and except for creating that mountlink once when the volume is created
there is no additional action or administration required for any Coda
client to see the new volume.
