Re: [Freeipa-users] AD users home directory automount

Yes, because you can point the automount maps to whatever device you want.  NFSv4 might be more tricky to setup on a SAN device and may or may not work depending on the software/firmware of the device.  NFSv3 is a well supported protocol across SAN vendors and you should not have any problems setting that up.  I've used Openfiler on a white-box SAN with home dirs and automount maps which is working fine for us.
I wonder if you could do some sort of CIFS home dir automount with a SAN that is joined to an AD domain which is trusted by FreeIPA?  Seems like this would be feasible.

HI LIst,

Is it possible to mount home directories of AD authenticated users from external source(like san or fileshare)

Regards,

Ben
