[Fedora-directory-users] Per-host specific search results

[Jonathan Barber]

Is it possible to get FDS to return different results depending on the
hostname/IP which the binding client appears to be comming from?

I would like this as I want to distribute different versions of Linux
autofs auto.master data to various client boxes, but keep the client
configuration identical and as simple as possible.

Possible I believe by ACL trickery (masking certain values from all but 
binds from certain hosts) but that would be a huge headache to 
administer I would imagine.

Probably better just to have an entry per host so that each host just 
looks for its own settings - the clients can have identical 
configuration, they just get their hostname and use that to search for 
their directory based configuration.  On the server side, look at class 
of service to reduce your admin overhead for the values.
