LDAP-based "auto.net" for /net

LDAP-based "auto.net" for /net

[jblaine]

If anyone has been successful in getting /net/hostname
automounting working with LDAP-based autofs maps (not
a local /etc/auto.net file), I would love to see your
LDIF information showing how you configured it.

Thanks

PS: wiki.autofs.net might as well be taken off the net.
    It contains absolutely nothing of worth other than
    a link to the mailing list stuff.

First, program maps must be on a file system.  Second, are you using
autofs version 4 or 5?  If 5, then you can simply use the ldif
equivalent of:

/net       -hosts

It hasn't exactly been publicized because those working on it (Ian and
myself) haven't had time to make it useful.  Sorry.

Cheers,

AutoFS 5.

That's what I am trying to do :)  I was hoping someone could
show me theirs.  It's not clear to me how to construct that
particular set of LDIF info.

OK, what schema are you using?

And what have you got in LDAP now or are you starting from scratch?

I'm using the RFC2307bis schema.  I have everything working
so far with the exception of /net (such as auto.home).

/etc/sysconfig/autofs contains (among other things):
DEFAULT_MAP_OBJECT_CLASS="automountMap"
DEFAULT_ENTRY_OBJECT_CLASS="automount"
DEFAULT_MAP_ATTRIBUTE="automountMapName"
DEFAULT_ENTRY_ATTRIBUTE="automountKey"
DEFAULT_VALUE_ATTRIBUTE="automountInformation"

Here's LDIF of mine for a site-specific 'auto.nfs' map's
entry (/NFS/reverse ----> jellyroll:/reverse)

dn: automountMapName=auto.nfs,dc=rcf,dc=foo,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: automountMap
automountMapName: auto.nfs

dn: automountkey=/NFS,automountMapName=auto.master,dc=rcf,dc=foo,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount
automountKey: /NFS
automountInformation: 
ldap:rcf-ldap1.foo.org:automountmapname=auto.nfs,dc=rcf,
dc=foo,dc=org

dn: automountKey=reverse,automountMapName=auto.nfs,dc=rcf,dc=foo,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount
automountKey: reverse
automountInformation: jellyroll:/&

So what about something like:

dn: automountkey=/net,automountMapName=auto.master,dc=rcf,dc=foo,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: automount
automountkey: /net
automountinformation:-hosts

I'm not sure if the "-" will give you trouble?

I believe "w00t" is the appropriate response.  I'm not
sure what I was doing wrong, but that works fine.  Thanks.
