OK, since the NIS schema isn't case sensitive, right. I know only what I need to know about LDAP and so I don't know what the % is supposed to do. Perhaps some of the LDAP folks here can help. Does it allow LDAP to retain the case sensitivity in a case insensitive attribute or does Solaris autofs do that bit? Does the % apply to the whole entry or just the character following it? Never the less I think it's wrong to allow multiple keys for a mount entry since the key is supposed to be unique. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nail El-Sourani > Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2007 7:54 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [autofs] autofs5 duplicate entries > > hi everyone, > > i seem to have a problem with autofs+ldap on duplicate entries. i > migrated from autofs4 settings over to autofs5 quite successfully and in > general everything seems to work fine. ill give u a working and > nonworking example. > > > auto.master contains: > /share ldap:nisMapName=auto_packages,ou=ivv5,dc=de -nosuid > > ldap queries on the path to automount give me: > > ldapsearch -x -LLL cn=java > > working: > objectClass: nisObject > objectClass: top > cn: Java > nisMapEntry: ... > nisMapName: auto_package... > > like the above, the autofs5 mounts with no problem. > > but this one, not working: > objectClass: nisObject > objectClass: top > cn: Java > cn: %Java > nisMapEntry: ... > nisMapName: auto_package... > > gives in /var/log/messages a > > Jul 25 14:22:45 SEMTEX automount[4872]: attempting to mount entry > /share/java Jul 25 14:22:45 SEMTEX automount[4872]: lookup_one: > lookup(ldap): key Java has duplicate entries Jul 25 14:22:45 SEMTEX > automount[4872]: failed to mount /share/java > > As I believe, there seems to be a Problem with cn:Java and cn:%Java > somehow.
