Hello, while migrating my autofs entries to another directory server I also tried to split the entries by organisational units. For this purpose I put the following in /etc/default/autofs: SEARCH_BASE="ou=autofs,OU=department1,OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com" SEARCH_BASE="ou=autofs,OU=department2,OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com" Autofs schema is NIS style because this is the only one which active directory and Samba4 support without too much hassle. However, the splitting does not seem to work. It is always using the first entry only: ... get_query_dn: lookup(ldap): found search base under ou=autofs,OU=department1,OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com get_query_dn: lookup(ldap): found query dn CN=auto.master,OU=autofs,OU=department1,OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com ... Changing SEARCH_BASE to the following does not help either: SEARCH_BASE="OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com" ... get_query_dn: lookup(ldap): found search base under OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com" get_query_dn: lookup(ldap): found query dn CN=auto.master,OU=autofs,OU=department2,OU=myplace,OU=mydivision,dc=mycompany,DC=com" ... No idea why it ends up using department2 in the second case. Any Idea?
