Hi,<br />
I have created LDAP user "ldapuser" and exported its home directory
"/home/LDAP/ldapuser" to LDAP client by following steps and its working
but when I replace /home/LDAP/ with /home/testdir/ or only /home it is
not allowing to modify&nbsp; database.<br /><br />
How can I export the user home directory from same location /home on client with "/home/ldapuser"?<br />
Please help me.<br /><br />
[root@sc1435-7 home]# ldapmodify -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=ldapserver,dc=com" -W -f /etc/openldap/automount.ldif<br />
Enter LDAP Password:<br />
modifying entry "ou=auto.master,dc=ldapserver,dc=com"<br /><br />
modifying entry "ou=auto.home,dc=ldapserver,dc=com"<br /><br />
modifying entry "cn=/home, ou=auto.master,dc=ldapserver,dc=com"<br /><br />
modifying entry "cn=testdir,ou=auto.home,dc=ldapserver,dc=com"<br />
ldap_modify: No such object (32)<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; matched DN: ou=auto.home,dc=ldapserver,dc=com<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
Working Steps with "/home/LDAP/"<br />
Step 1. <br />
#mkdir /home/LDAP<br />
cp -dpR&nbsp; /home/ldapuser /home/LDAP/<br />
Step 2. <br />
Modify data base for "ldapuser" home directory :(as bellow)<br />
Create ldif file for auto mount of home directory:(as bellow)<br />
Step 3. <br />
Edit /etc/exports for shard directory<br />
[root@sc1435-7 home]# cat /etc/exports<br />
/home/LDAP &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *(rw,sync)<br />
# /usr/sbin/exportfs -a&nbsp; <br />
Step 4. <br />
Add changes in LDAP data base :<br />
ldapmodify -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=ldapserver,dc=com" -W -f /etc/openldap/ldapuser.ldif<br />
ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=ldapserver,dc=com" -W -f /etc/openldap/automount.ldif<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />
Modify data base for "ldapuser" home directory :<br />
# cat /etc/openldap/ldapuser.ldif<br />
dn: uid=ldapuser,ou=People,dc=ldapserver,dc=com<br />
uid: ldapuser<br />
cn: ldapuser<br />
objectClass: account<br />
objectClass: posixAccount<br />
objectClass: top<br />
objectClass: shadowAccount<br />
userPassword: {crypt}$1$lxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.<br />
shadowLastChange: 13968<br />
shadowMax: 99999<br />
shadowWarning: 7<br />
loginShell: /bin/bash<br />
uidNumber: 500<br />
gidNumber: 100<br />
homeDirectory: /home/test/ldapuser<br /><br />
Create ldif file for auto mount of home directory:<br />
# cat /etc/openldap/automount.ldif<br />
dn: ou=auto.master,dc=ldapserver,dc=com<br />
objectClass: top<br />
objectClass: automountMap<br />
ou: auto.master<br /><br />
dn: ou=auto.home,dc=ldapserver,dc=com<br />
objectClass: top<br />
objectClass: automountMap<br />
ou: auto.home<br /><br />
dn: cn=/home, ou=auto.master,dc=ldapserver,dc=com<br />
objectClass: automount<br />
automountInformation: ldap:ou=auto.home,dc=ldapserver,dc=com --timeout 60<br />
cn: /home<br /><br />
dn: ou=auto.home,dc=ldapserver,dc=com<br />
objectClass: automount<br />
automountInformation: -rw,hard,intr sc1435-7:/home<br /><br />
 <br /><br />
