Research amd (automount daemon) and autofs, maybe you can get one of
them to do what you need. amd is totally userspace; autofs is the
newer better method which requires kernel support. I did get amd to
control my CD changer (mount the right CD when I change into the right
directory) but it's neither perfect nor trivial; anyway that's an
example of running an arbitrary command when mounting (except that the
mounting is triggered by the "cd" command rather than manually). I
read that it can handle FTP too.
