I'm needing a strategy to accomplish the following: We have AD, with Server for NIS working on the DC. I've got NIS successfully working for login - or at least the client starts to login and then complains about a lack of home dir, which is fine for now.
Each AD user has a directory on a fileserver, and I'd like these to be automounted as the home directory. The share path to a user's directory looks more or less like //server/share/gerry. So far, I can think of a couple of strategies for this - one is to mount the share at bootup under some special credential that I create, and then map the home directory at each authentication, but somehow I find that fraught with risk. What I'd rather do is use autofs to mount //server/share/gerry at login time using that user's credentials. After two days, I haven't found any good documentation on how to do this. Can someone point me in the right direction, and are there any gotchas to this approach that I should be aware of?
