FWIW there was an article in Linux Journal a few months back that described setting up LDAP. I got autofs and LDAP to work but I could not figure out how to pass options to autofs via LDAP. As a result I gave up. If anyone knows how to pass options to autofs like --timeout I would appreciate a pointer. There is a link in the autofs man page that is supposed to have additional info but it was broken when I tried it and google was no help. -- ......Tom Registered Linux User #14522 http://counter.li.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] My current SpamTrap [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ autofs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/autofs
