I tried pam_mount but have had several issues; primarily with getting rid of the mount later. pam_cifs is simpler, easier and better for cifs - http://sourceforge.net/projects/pam-cifs. Combined with pam_mkhomedir you should be getting very close. I'm using pam_cifs on a network with

Here is what I did on my setup: 1) Mounted a base share for all samba data (i.e. home dirs and profiles) in /home/samba so that I ended up with /home/samba/home/$USER and /home/samba/profiles/$USER (where $USER is the login name of the user) 2) Pointed all LDAP users home dirs to

Hi Samba Gurus, We have an OpenLDAP server (openldap2-2.1.22-65) and a separate NFS server for home dirs. Currently LDAP NIS maps are being used by the Linux users in the department for home dir mounting on Linux clients. As everybody does, I started to look at Samba to accommodate the Windows

Dear All, I am trying to automount a home directory on a Samba server. The Samba server is set to USER security and it does currently authenticate to an LDAP server (iPlanet DS 5.1). However, once logged in I would like to see an entry pointing to the users home directory which is done

Hi, Don't use the automounter. Instead write a small shell (or perl) skript that mounts and unmounts the cds (and kills everything that would prevent you from unmounting). When it works, make it suid root. The problem with that is that it is Samba that keeps me from unmounting. See,
