Hello Everybody,

How to make autofs read map from ldap rather than files.

I have changed the entries in nsswitch.conf file as LDAP.

Gone through OPENLDAP FAQ for fixing the init scripts but nothing works.

My ldap entries are as follows
The ldif for master is like this.

dn: ou=auto.master,dc=testlab,dc=com
objectClass:top
objectClass:automountMap
ou:auto.master

dn: cn=/home,ou=auto.master,dc=testlab,dc=com
objectClass:automount
cn:/home
automountInformation: ldap server.testlab.com:ou=auto.home,dc=testlab,dc=com
--timeout 60

Auto.Home

 dn: ou=auto.home,dc=testlab,dc=com
objectClass:top
objectClass:automountMap
ou:auto.home

dn: cn=user1,ou=auto.home,dc=testlab,dc=com
objectClass: automount
cn:user1
automountInformation: -fstype=nfs,hard,intr server.testlab.com:/home/user1

I'm using 4.1.3-155 version of autofs and Rhel4

when i say service autofs restart it says

no mount points defined but [OK]

when i see STATUS it says
no configured Mount points

/usr/lib/autofs/autofs-ldap-auto-master DOESn't give any ouput

Here's the ouput of sh -x \etc\init.d\autofs start

PLEASE HELP.
