ONE LAST QUESTION (arg !!), can I move /etc/auto.master in ldap
Follows the complete configuration to make it works (that might be a
good resume for others ...)
$more /etc/auto.master
/mci ldap:openldap.int-evry.fr:ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
$more /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
HOST openldap.int-evry.fr
BASE dc=int-evry,dc=fr
$/etc/init.d/autofs status
Configured Mount Points:
------------------------
/usr/sbin/automount /mci ldap
openldap.int-evry.fr:ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
Active Mount Points:
--------------------
/usr/sbin/automount /mci ldap
openldap.int-evry.fr:ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
/usr/sbin/automount --submount /mci/mci ldap
ou=auto.mci.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
/usr/sbin/automount --submount /mci/em ldap
ou=auto.mci.em,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
Here is the ldif file that works
# This entry is more or less a place-holder for automount entries for
# directories which get mounted under /mci.
dn: ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: auto.mci

dn: cn=procacci,ou=auto.mci.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount

automountInformation: -rw,intr,soft,quota
nfsserver/user2000/mci/procacci
# This is a wildcard entry for any user whose home directory is under
# /mci/mci (this includes procacci, too).
dn: cn=/,ou=auto.mci.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr

Even BETTER: include auto.master in ldap, no more /etc/auto.master.
for the configuration above, here's what I add:
dn: ou=auto.master,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
objectClass: top
objectClass: automountMap
ou: auto.master
dn: cn=/mci, ou=auto.master,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
objectClass: automount
automountInformation:
ldap:openldap.int-evry.fr:ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
-rw,intr,soft,quota
cn: /mci
$grep automount /etc/nsswitch.conf
automount: ldap
$/etc/init.d/autofs status
Configured Mount Points:
------------------------
/usr/sbin/automount /mci ldap
openldap.int-evry.fr:ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr -rw,intr,soft,quota
Active Mount Points:
--------------------
/usr/sbin/automount /mci ldap
openldap.int-evry.fr:ou=auto.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr -rw,intr,soft,quota
/usr/sbin/automount --submount /mci/mci ldap
ou=auto.mci.mci,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
/usr/sbin/automount --submount /mci/em ldap
ou=auto.mci.em,dc=int-evry,dc=fr
And it Works !
Thanks a lot to everyone for your help on this.
