Most of us know that you can use the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to tell a specific NetworkService-oriented feature to use files, nis ldap or etc.. and in that order.

So, in my question where in CentOS' /etc/nsswitch.conf file, I want to have automount point to ldap for configuration, not files.

Can anyone help me with the proper syntax in LDIF for getting the equivalent syntax for the files:

/etc/auto.master, and

/etc/auto.home

into my 389-ds instance.

I found several webpages but they all appear to be misleading or out of date.  I would like to do this work for an isolated environment I am working on, and also document it for longevity's sake.

My actual work PC is currently broken, I cannot share a copy of the files I want to provide as my file-based configurations for automounting NFS shares.

Can someone help me, I would love to collaborate and document this/these steps associated.
