We use "automountmapname" as the naming attribute for the maps. 2. We use "automountkey" as the naming attribute for the map keys. 3. We don't specify the server name in the "automountinformation". 4. We have to run a different auto.master for Linux than Solaris clients. Here's an example auto.master (for Linux): dn: automountmapname=auto.master,dc=example,dc=com automountmapname: auto.master objectclass: top objectclass: automountmap dn: automountkey=/home,dc=example,dc=com automountkey: /home objectclass: top objectclass: automount automountinformation: ldap:automountmapname=auto_home,dc=example,dc=com Here's an example auto_home: dn: automountmapname=auto_home,dc=example,dc=com automountmapname: auto_home objectclass: top objectclass: automountmap dn: automountkey=someuser,dc=example,dc=com automountkey: someuser objectclass: top objectclass: automount automountinformation: -rw,hard,intr someserver:/export/home/someuser -Steve
