I just wanted to thank EVERYONE for their input on this matter.
I still haven't found what I'm looking for, but I've got a lot of starting points. Mike On 7/24/07, Kong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I use winbind for authentication, and oddjob for auto creation of home directories. Winbind AD configuration: http://redmondmag.com/columns/article.asp?EditorialsID=858 For automatic creation of home directories : (from http://www.redhat.com/magazine/024oct06/features/tips_tricks/index.html) (replace up2date with yum) To create home directories on-the-fly, use pam_oddjob_mkhomedir instead. In this case, the directory creation will be handled by a D-Bus service running as root instead. To put it in place follow the steps below: * Update the oddjob package: up2date -i oddjob * Restart D-Bus, this might require to restart some services that rely on D-Bus, such as hal: #service messagebus restart * Start the oddjob service: #service oddjobd restart * Make sure it runs on startup: #chkconfig oddjobd on * Modify the PAM configuration to use pam_oddjob_mkhomedir. For example, add this line at the bottom of /etc/pam.d/system-auth: session required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_oddjob_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/ umask=0022
