Hello,

I have a very weird issue that maybe someone sounds familiar. I have
placed our automount entry's in our Active Directory / LDAP. Problem is
that is it not stable. After a restart of autofs I sometimes only see
half of our map entry's. Sometimes 75 %.

That's odd if the map is actually being read, yes.
At one time autofs didn't do paged ldap reads so AD would only send one page which meant not all the entries would be read for larger maps.


When I do a autofs reload maybe 90 % of the time I see all entry's. I am
having this issue on Redhat 6 and Suse 11. Strange thing is that the
autofs logging (debug) shows always all the entry's but are not
reflected in the filesystem structure.

I can't remember now what gets logged for the ldap map reads so how have you established the read gets all the entries (and what rel6 version of autofs are you using)?


This is my config :

/etc/sysconfig/autofs
----
LDAP_URI="ldap://srvxxx.domain.net/";
SEARCH_BASE="ou=LinuxAutoMount,ou=Resources,dc=domain,dc=net"
LDAP_TIMEOUT="100"
LDAP_NETWORK_TIMEOUT="100"
MAP_HASH_TABLE_SIZE=2048

OK, so BROWSE_MODE isn't set so it = yes by default and you expect the mount point directories within what are probably indirect mounts to be created or removed, as the case may be, correct?

But they aren't all being created (or removed)?


/etc/autofs_ldap_auth.conf
----
<autofs_ldap_sasl_conf
      usetls="no"
      tlsrequired="no"
      authrequired="yes"
      authtype="GSSAPI"
      clientprinc="nfs/client01.domain.net@xxxxxxxxxx"
/>

Don't think this makes any difference since if auth was failing I don't think you would get any entries.


/etc/nsswitch.conf
----
automount:    files ldap

This might make a difference, depending on what file maps exist, but we would need a debug log and map examples to reproduce the problem.

What about logging a bug against rhel-6 and working on it there.
