That was my first attempt, but for some unknwon reasons that
always gave me a 'syntax error' (svccfg has some loose ends
in its parsing algorithm, sometimes you really don't know
why you get an error at all).
But the comma for sharectl a) works, b) gives an instant
reconfiguration in autofs, which enables me to change one or
more variables on the fly (we need that because our computer
center has an odd opinion how a multi-homed nfs server has to
work....)
