hello all,

I am just about to get my automounting working with autofs5 and my ldap.  I am 
able to start the automount daemon and it loads and reads /home map, which 
points at ou=auto.home for the user's home directory location and options.

but when i attempt to su - <user> it can not mount the user's home.  here is 
what i see in the ldap server's access log:
===
[31/Jul/2007:15:28:19 -0500] conn=8420 op=1 SRCH 
base="cn=sfu,ou=auto.home,dc=it,dc=ou,dc=edu" scope=2 
filter="(&(objectClass=automount)(|(automountKey=tmac)(automountKey=/)))" 
attrs="automountKey automountInformation"
[31/Jul/2007:15:28:19 -0500] conn=8420 op=1 RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=0 
etime=0
[31/Jul/2007:15:28:19 -0500] conn=8420 op=2 UNBIND
===

the weird part of the above is, in the first line it says "cn=sfu" but then 
also says automountKey=tmac

the su command is:  su - tmac

so the correct username is tmac not sfu.

any ideas where the sfu thing is coming from??

is the info cached somewhere?  I ask because when I start the daemon, i can 
see in the logs where it does:
===
[31/Jul/2007:15:35:40 -0500] conn=8536 op=1 SRCH 
base="ou=auto.home,dc=it,dc=ou,dc=edu" scope=2 
filter="(objectClass=automount)" attrs="1.1"
[31/Jul/2007:15:35:40 -0500] conn=8536 op=1 RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=617 
etime=0
===
which is returning 617 entries.

not sure what i have wroong here??

TIA
