Hi List,

How many levels of indirection can I use in the autofs maps?

For example, can I have a setup like this?

/net |-- /server1 |-- /foo

with a map defined as below:

dn: ou=auto.master,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: top objectClass: automountMap ou: auto.master

dn: cn=/net,ou=auto.master,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: automount objectClass: top cn: /net automountInformation: ldap:ou=auto.net,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org -- timeout=7200 --ghost

dn: ou=auto.net,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: automountMap ou: auto.net

dn: cn=server1,ou=auto.net,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: automount cn: server1 automountInformation: ldap:ou=server1,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org

dn: ou=server1,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: automountMap ou: server1

dn: cn=server1,ou=server1,ou=cmc,ou=automount,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: automount cn: server1 automountInformation: - fstype=nfs,hard,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,nfsvers=3,proto=tcp server1:/data/foo

I went ahead and created this setup, but haven't been able to get it to work. Just wondering if this is allowed in autofs-ldap or if my ldap map syntax is somehow incorrect.

Thanks, - Khosrow
