SMIT doesn't appear to be able to do this. Just starts it for current boot. I tried sticking it at the end of /etc/rc.nfs, but it doesn't work. After the machine is up, shelling /etc/rc.nfs starts it. 'biod's exist before the second shell'ing of /etc/rc.nfs, so I know that /etc/rc.nfs is being exec'd during boot (also echo'd msg right before executing /usr/etc/automount). Any ideas?
