Public bug reported:
Hi,
We are running an environment where users' home directories are
automounted based on information stored in an LDAP db. To avoid double-
lookups (and increase performance and stability), we use the sssd daemon
to cache login and automount information. I.e, the /etc/nsswitch.conf
has 'automount: sss' as opposed to 'automount: ldap'.
With other distros this is not an issue, but for some reason the autofs
pkg in Ubuntu (we're on 12.10/Quantal Quetzal) is missing the
'lookup_sss.so' module which autofs uses to obtain the automount
information from the System Security Services Daemon/sssd.
Since this looks like an oversight; I am reporting this issue as a bug
in the hope of a quick fix. Naturally, the Ubuntu installation is not
working very well without this functionality in place and maintaining
custom packages for this task is not a good option.
