Autofs mount problem

English Network/Internet
#1

Hello,
I have configured my homes to be mounted using ldap. But when I start the computer the mounting points don’t work at all, unless I start autofs manually.

The same configuration is working on all other machine with the same kernel, software version, etc…

chkconfig -l gives me

autofs                    0:off  1:off  2:off  3:on   4:on   5:on   6:off

Here the /var/log/messages log file

Any ideas ?

Thank you

#
# This configuration option can also be used to request AutoFS lookup
# SRV RRs for a domain of the form <proto>:///<domain dn>]. Note that a
# trailing "/" is not allowed when using this form. If the domain dn
# is not specified the DNS domain name (if any) is used to construct
# the domain dn for the SRV RR lookup. The server list returned from
# an SRV RR lookup is refreshed according to the minimum ttl found in
# the SRV RR records or after one hour, whichever is less.

The same configuration is working on all other machine with the same kernel, software version, etc…

That is definitly not enough to let us guess what level of openSUSE you use.

#5

The ldap stores the maps and then autofs mounts the shares if the user was identified. (fi: home folders)

#6

It’s OpenSUSE 12.1

I have found a way to make it work.
I uninstalled systemd-sysvinit and instead zypper installed sysvinit.
