autofs and ldap in fedora 7

autofs and ldap in fedora 7

[jehan procaccia]

Hello, I am trying to read autofs map from an ldap server on the brand 
new fedora core 7 system .
 but it doesn't work :-(
Is there a way to check / debug what the automount process reads ? in 
fedora core 5 the init.d autofs script showed interesting information:

[root@b02-05 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora Core release 5 (Bordeaux)
[root@b02-05 ~]# /etc/init.d/autofs status
Configured Mount Points:
------------------------
/usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /net program /etc/auto.net
/usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /mci ldap 
ou=auto.mci,ou=automount,dc=int-evry,dc=fr

Active Mount Points:
--------------------
/usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /net program /etc/auto.net
/usr/sbin/automount --timeout=60 /mci ldap 
ou=auto.mci,ou=automount,dc=int-evry,dc=fr

now, in fedora 7  it only show "running" :-( ...
[root@b008-04 ~]# uname -a
Linux b008-04.int-evry.fr 2.6.20-1.3104.fc7 #1 SMP Sat Apr 21 22:20:43 
EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[root@b008-04 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 7 (Rawhide)
[root@b008-04 ~]# /etc/init.d/autofs status
automount (pid 19446) running...


Thanks to let me know how to check what the autmount process actually sees .

autofs version 5 is a single process now.
You can find out what autofs mount points have been mounted by looking
at /proc/mounts.

You should be able to find out what's wrong by checking the log, if that
doesn't get you anything enable debug and check the log again.
Directions for getting debug output can be found at
