Hi Ian, here is the exchangings: *** PLAKDAWA

In RHEL4 it was possible to set a "basedn" variable in the /etc/sysconfig/autofs file which served as a basedn for LDAP lookups performed by the automounter. However, this has been removed in RHEL5. This functionality is critical for us because we separate automounter maps by region, but look up accounts and groups in the entire directory. So different basedn are required for each of these lookups. Can this functonality please be restored? Thank you. *** BBARBE

@ BASEDN was introduced in the following errata @ http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2006-0464.html @ It is present in Update 4 and up *** PLAKDAWA

We set the autofs basedn using /etc/sysconfig/autofs. We do not use /etc/openldap/ldap.conf because this file is automatically edited by the redhat config tools authconfig and system-config-authentication. These tools setup identical basedn entries for the two files /etc/ldap.conf and /etc/openldap/ldap.conf. The /etc/sysconfig/autofs settings for us in RHEL AS4 are as follows: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/autofs # Define custom options in /etc/sysconfig/autofs # Use LOCALOPTIONS for defining variables, e.g. OSREL # Use DAEMONOPTIONS to define the unmount timeout # Define UNDERSCORETODOT as 1 to convert # auto_home to auto.home and auto_mnt to auto.mnt # Mount options, e.g. rsize=8192, should go in auto.master or # the auto_* map entry for a specific mount point # LOCALOPTIONS="" DAEMONOPTIONS="--timeout=60" LDAPAUTOMASTER="" # UNDERSCORETODOT changes auto_home to auto.home and auto_mnt to auto.mnt UNDERSCORETODOT=1 DISABLE_DIRECT=1 # Only source one master map if set to 1. This would mimic Sun behaviour. # The default is 0 to maintain backwards compatibility. # List of directories to be ghosted, separated by white space. GHOSTDIRS="" # Base DN to use when searching for the master map BASEDN=ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com *** PLAKDAWA

Just to give you a little more information: Our automount schema is based on the "automountmapname", "automountkey" and "automountinformation" attributes. This works properly with the relevant settings in the /etc/sysconfig/autofs file on RHEL5 if the basedn is set manually in the /etc/openldap/ldap.conf file. However, since the openldap/ldap.conf file can be used by other applications, we don't want our automounter's basedn to depend on this. The LDAP attributes of the automount maps are as shown below: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ldapsearch -LLL -x -b "ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com" "automountmapname=auto_nfshome" dn: automountMapName=auto_nfshome,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto_nfshome [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ldapsearch -LLL -x -b "automountmapname=auto_nfshome,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com" "automountkey=plakdawa" dn: automountkey=plakdawa,automountMapName=auto_nfshome,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=h yperion,dc=com automountInformation: scfs3:/vol/vol2/homes/& automountKey: plakdawa objectClass: top objectClass: automount *** PLAKDAWA

I am not certain if the lab server will be reachable from your subnets. We are part of hyperion (was recently acquired by Oracle). Please try the @ following IP address @ Name: labldap02.hyperion.com Address: 172.27.33.46 The LDAP basedn for all account lookups is "dc=hyperion,dc=com". The LDAP basedn for automount lookups is "ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com" *** WWG

@ yes, as you said, BASEDN set in /etc/sysconfig/autofs doesn't work. @ while, you can specify the auto master entry by add one line in to @ /etc/sysconfig/autofs @ DEFAULT_MASTER_MAP_NAME="//172.27.33.46/automountmapname=auto_nfshome,ou=sc,ou @ =ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com" *** PLAKDAWA

We have multiple automount maps in ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com. So should the DEFAULT_MASTER_MAP_NAME be set to the auto.master map? [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ldapsearch -LLL -x -b "ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com" "objectclass=automountmap" dn: automountMapName=auto_automnt,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com automountMapName: auto_automnt objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap dn: automountMapName=auto_master,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com automountMapName: auto_master objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap dn: automountMapName=auto.master,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com automountMapName: auto.master objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap dn: automountMapName=auto_scfs3,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto_scfs3 dn: automountMapName=auto_scfs4,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto_scfs4 dn: automountMapName=auto_nar200,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto_nar200 dn: automountMapName=auto_nfshome,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto_nfshome dn: automountMapName=auto_products,ou=sc,ou=ca,ou=na,dc=hyperion,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap automountMapName: auto_products *** PLAKDAWA

The other issue with the DEFAULT_MASTER_MAP_NAME is that providing the full URL, will prevent the failover to the secondary LDAP server should the one mentioned in the URL fail. Or is it possible to add secondary entries? over. thanks wengang.
