I just read that link. I'm not sure about the accuracy of his statement about "Sun and the rest of the world use the nisMap and nisObject schema and ou=auto_home instead of auto.home". It's too bad there isn't better documentation for this.

In my case, I'm trying to get RedHat 8.0 LDAP + automount (client), to work with a Solaris LDAP server. I had automounter working with the old Solaris NIS server, but someone thought that was too easy, and changed it all over to LDAP.. So, I'm starting over. ;) I'll check out the link you provided. In addition, I found the following, which may shed some light... So far, it hasn't helped mine, .. But I'm still working on it. http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200106/msg00355.html Ric Rigler, S C (Steve) wrote: > I'm about to start working with the same issue right now.
