In reading through all the (sparse) documentation I can find, it seems
that what I'd like to do is impossible, but it would be good to get
confirmation.
We have some systems which will mostly be accessed by users
authenticated against and AD directory and with home directories
automounted from an NFS server. However these machines also have some
local accounts which are needed for technical reasons.
For convenience sake, I'd like all the home directories to co-exist
under /home:
/home/local_user1
/home/local_user2
/home/ad_user1
...
/home/ad_user2
I thought I could do with with direct maps, but can't seem to get it to
work without explicating all the AD users, which would be hard to
manage. The usual paradigm of using indirect maps like this:
auto.master: /home /etc/auto.home
auto.home: * nfs_server:/home/&
masks everything that is in the local /home, including any local home
directories.
Is there any way to do what I'm trying to do with autofs, or should I
just bite the bullet and move the local home directories to /local/home?
