Hi.
I am currently going crazy trying to get Automounter to take it's data from LDAP when
a user logs on.
I have a Perl script written which has been compiled and works fine on one server, but
if I compile the same script on another server, Automounter does not like it.
We have Perl libraries in different directories on different servers, so I need to be
able to compile the perl script with perlcc on each different server.
The Perl script is below. It contacts the LDAP server and returns to STDOUT the
required data.
The perl script lives in /pkgs/ldapprogs/bin and is called autohome
I then: 'ln -s /pkgs/ldapprogs/bin/autohome /etc/auto_home' and this works fine on one
of our servers.
#!/pkgs/bin/perl
$username = $ARGV[0];
$LDAPget=`/usr/bin/ldapsearch -h glbldap1 -b ou=Operations,ou=Glebe,o=AAPT
cn=$username`;
@LDAPfields=split(/\x0a/,$LDAPget);
foreach $value (@LDAPfields) {
if ($value=~/nisMapEntry/) {
($key,$val) = split(/=/,$value);
$val=~ s/&/$username/;
print "$val /home/$username\n";
}
}
This will output:
server4:/export/home/joakley /home/joakley
Am I on the right track with this script?
I tried installing AMD, but it kept giving errors.
