In auto.master, you can have an entry like:
/home ldap:nisMapName=auto_XXXXX,ou=Autofs,....
and have each system specify a different auto_XXXXX location in LDAP to
start from.
Or you could have have script in place of the auto.home entry:
/home auto_select_script,....
where auto_select_script is a script that is passed the username.
It can use ldap to determine what to do.
