Hi Ben,
I'm not sure how you would do this when your homedirs are in that many
shares, but if you could make them into one share you could use a setup
similar to ours:
[root@adm-001 ~]# ipa automountmap-find
Location: default
------------------------
3 automount maps matched
------------------------
Map: auto.direct
Map: auto.home
Map: auto.master
----------------------------
Number of entries returned 3
----------------------------
[root@adm-001 ~]#
[root@adm-001 ~]# ipa automountkey-find
Location: default
Map: auto.home
-----------------------
1 automount key matched
-----------------------
Key: *
Mount information: -fstype=nfs4,rw,sec=krb5,intr,hard
adm-001.kac.sblokalnet:/data/home/&
----------------------------
Number of entries returned 1
----------------------------
[root@adm-001 ~]#
Explanation:
The location, maps and keys are what you can also see in the web-UI
under "Network Services" -> "Automount" -> "Automount Locations" ->
"default" -> "auto.home" -> "Mount Information".
The Mount information is the contents of the field to the right.
The interesting part is the /data/home/& which means that /data/home is
shared as /data/home and & refers the the username of the user trying to
access the directory. So, all the users' homedirs are in /data/home. On
our system, the IPA server is also the NFS server for homedirs(we don't
have that many users).
Also, the NFS server should be a IPA client so that it can recognize the
users from the other clients. This is also needed if you want to use
kerberos.
