Okay I'm a bit lost at this point. I've got created an idmap plugin
that loads and does some useful stuff for me but I'm still having a
rough time with the homedir.
I've been working this the nss_*_get_info() using
nss_rfc2307_get_info() and nss_sfu_get_info() as a guide and the big
problem I've run into at this point it I don't know the username of
the user I'm creating the homedir for. Variable substitution happens
after I munge the homedir string so, any suggestions on where I can
get the username would help.
Thanks,
Derek

Hello All,
I'm integrating an existing unix environment into an exist AD
environment. I'm thinking of switching from nssldap to nss_winbind
but
have one problem. My user's home directories are in the format of
/home/user/<$first letter>/<$second letter>/<$username>
(/home/user/d/h/dhaknes). Looking at the template homedir it doesn't
appear that I can use this format. Is there away to pull the first
and
second letters of the username as variables to use in template
homedir?
No but this would be easy to implement. The nss_info API allows
you to write a new plugin. if you code in C, I can point you right
at what to do. Maybe an hour's work.
Side question, I'm looking at using pam_mkhomedir and
it is creating home directories for computer accounts
is there anyway to prevent that?
Not really. A Computer object is derived from a user object
in AD. SO both share the same set of base attributes
(i.e. a computer is just a special type of user).
cheers, jerry
