Subject: HOST expansion with autofs+LDAP
Date: Tue, 12 May 2009 11:45:29 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090512154529.9FC3313ED0@wsnyder.org> (raw)


I have a suse10.3 system which includes autofs-5.0.2-30.2

I'd like an LDAP entry that makes an autofs mountpoint that
includes the local host's name.  If this wasn't under LDAP I
believe "/net/$HOST" would work - creating a
"/net/{name-of-hostname}" mountpoint.

However, if I add a mountpoint with cn=$HOST

cn=$HOST,nismapname=auto.net,dc=company,dc=com

The automounter nicely makes a "/net/$HOST" mount -
*literally* /net/$HOST, that is it doesn't expand $HOST to
the hostname.

Same thing if I use cn=${host}

Any hints?  Thanks!
