Hi,
i have problems mounting on the client ubuntu the users's home
directories that are on a server debian squeeze with ldap-samba.

First of all, which is the correct syntax for homeDirectory attribute if
that home is on a server. I wrote:
homeDirectory: //192.168.5.219/users/username


$ ldapsearch -x -s base -b cn=Subschema attributetypes|perl -p0e 's/\n
//g'|
grep homeDirectory
attributeTypes: ( 1.3.6.1.1.1.1.3 NAME 'homeDirectory' DESC 'The

Note, it does not say a URI or a<sic>Universal</sic> Naming Convention

name.


but pam_mount tells me volume not found.

am not sure of samba and smbldap configurations also. could you take a
look of my conf files?

this is smb.conf:


[...]


[homes]
path = /users/%u
browseable = no
writable = yes
valid users = %S
read only = no
guest ok = no
admin users = %u
write list = %u
read list = %u
create mask = 0700
directory mask = 0700


[...]


and this is smbldap.conf:


[...]


# Home directory
# Ex: userHome="/home/%U"
userHome="/users/%U"


[...]

Why not include your pam_mount configuration? You should be able to do
something like:
<volume fstype="cifs" server="192.168.5.219" path="%(USER)"
mountpoint="~" />

Of course, I wonder about setups where the Unix side is Unixy for
everything,
except the file sharing (hint: NFS, automount maps).

here i am

thanks for your reply. this is pam_mount configuration:

<smbmount> smbmount //192.168.5.219/users/%(USER) /home/%(USER)</smbmount>
<umount> umount /home/%(USER) </umount>


</pam_mount>

it doesn't run.
trying also from the command line:
sudo mount.cifs //192.168.5.219/users /mnt/samba/Dati/ user=****
password=****
it asks me a password again. writing the server root password it tells
No such device or address. Writing a wrong password it tells "Permission
denied".

Maybe this argument is out of the scope of this ml or maybe not.

Hope someone could help me.

Thanks

Hi,
trying to mount locally an home directory it runs asking root server password but it doesn't mount the home directory after login. In homeDirectory attribute i tried with both: "/users/username" and "//amahoro/users/username". The first one is relative path to the server, the second one is absolute path to the server from the client. In both cases i have the same errors:
access("/users/leonidas/.hushlogin", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/users/leonidas/.pam_environment", 0xbfe63ed0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/users/leonidas/.pam_environment", 0xbfe63ed0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/users/leonidas/.cache/motd.legal-displayed", 0xbfe6421c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/users/leonidas/.cache/motd.legal-displayed", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0644) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/var/mail/leonidas", 0xbfe642cc) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

Do you have ideas where is the problem?

Thanks
