It's not a question of "want", I'm trying to integrate a Fedora desktop(s) as seamlessly as possible into an existing Active Directory environment, and that means having a user's personal files accessible as seamlessly as possible. The new AD support in SSSD 1.11 means that the AD admins don't need to extend the AD schema and maintain the new attributes. > You will not be able to have the home directory be specified by the AD > server though unless you want to cleverly use the unixHomeDirectory > attribute (and your windows admin properly populates it for each user). The actual attribute in AD is "homeDirectory" and is populated with UNC paths to the user's home directory. I'll have to dig into autofs to see if it can do what I want. -- Jeff Ollie -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
