autofs

[Paul Clayton <paul.clayton@intec.co.za>]

Gurus,

I have been attempting to configure autofs with ldap, without much success
so far. What I have noticed, is that when the user logs on, no attempted is
made to contact the ldap server to get information about the auto.home, but
the user is authenticated with out any problem.

The program /usr/lib/autofs/autofs-ldap-auto-master returns a found ldap
server, so I know at least that it can contact the ldap server. 

I have a feeling that my auto.master file is wrong.

Below is my auto.master

----------------------------------------------------------------
/misc   /etc/auto.misc  --timeout=60
/export/home    ldap:nisMapName=auto.home,dc=my_domain,dc=com --timeout 500
----------------------------------------------------------------

Regards
