AutoFS LDAP Help
Hi,
I am trying to setup the LDAP autofs using Redhat 8.0. I have two Redhat
machine one is LDAP/NFS server, another is just client.
Here is my configuration:
192.168.1.110 is LDAP/Server
192.168.1.8 is Client
Using LDAP Authentication I was able to login into 192.168.1.8. Now I want
to share 192.168.1.110 home directory to the clients.
In the server I shared the home directory.
# cat /etc/exports
/home
192.168.1.8(rw,insecure,sync,insecure_locks,no_root_squash)
Client side I modified /etc/nsswitch.conf :
automount: files
#cat /etc/auto.master
#
# directories listed in /etc/auto_home is mounted under /home
/home auto_home
[root@localhost root]# cat /etc/auto_home
# Export all the users home directory in Server
· 192.168.1.110:/home/&
With this configuration automount works.
I want to store this information in LDAP, My sample ldif file configuration
looks like this.
[root@localhost work]# cat au.ldif
dn: ou=auto.master, dc=percipia, dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: automountMap
ou: auto.master
dn: cn=/home, ou=auto.master, dc=percipia, dc=com
objectClass: automount
cn: /home
automountInformation: ldap 192.168.1.110:ou=auto.home,dc=percipia,dc=com
dn: ou=auto.home, dc=percipia, dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: automountMap
ou: auto.home
dn: cn=ravi, ou=auto.home, dc=percipia, dc=com
objectClass: automount
cn: ravi
automountInformation: 192.168.1.110:/home/ravi
dn: cn=sundaram, ou=auto.home, dc=percipia, dc=com
objectClass: automount
cn: sundaram
automountInformation: 192.168.1.110:/home/sundaram
On the client side I modified /etc/nsswitch.conf :
automount: ldap
[root@localhost root]# service autofs restart
Stopping automount: [ OK ]
Starting automount: [ OK ]
[root@localhost root]# ls /home/sundaram
ls: /home/sundaram: No such file or directory
[root@localhost root]# service autofs status Configured Mount Points:
------------------------
/usr/sbin/automount /home yp ldap
192.168.1.110:ou=auto.home,dc=percipia,dc=com
Active Mount Points:

[root@localhost root]#
