NAME

   ipa-client-automount - Configure automount and NFS for IPA

SYNOPSIS

   ipa-client-automount [OPTION]... <location>

DESCRIPTION

   Configures automount for IPA.

   The automount configuration consists of three files:

   o      /etc/nsswitch.conf

   o      /etc/sysconfig/autofs

   o      /etc/autofs_ldap_auth.conf

   By  default this will use DNS discovery to attempt to determine the IPA
   server(s) to use. If IPA servers  are  discovered  then  the  automount
   client will be configured to use DNS discovery.

   If  DNS  discovery  fails  or  a  specific  server  is desired, use the
   --server option.

   The default automount location is named default. To specify a different
   one use the --location option.

   The  IPA  client  must  already  be  configured  in  order to configure
   automount.  The  IPA  client  is  configured  as  part  of   a   server
   installation.

   There  are  two ways to configure automount. The default is to use sssd
   to manage the automount maps. Alternatively autofs  can  configured  to
   bind  to  LDAP  over  GSSAPI  and authenticate using the machine's host
   principal.

   The nsswitch automount service is configured to use either sss or  ldap
   and files depending on whether SSSD is configured or not.

   NFSv4  is  also  configured. The rpc.gssd and rpc.idmapd are started on
   clients to support Kerberos-secured mounts.

OPTIONS

   --server=SERVER Set the IPA server to connect to

   --location=LOCATION

   -U, --unattended

   --uninstall

          /etc/nsswitch.conf

   Files that will  be  configured  when  SSSD  is  the  automount  client
   (default):

          /etc/sssd/sssd.conf

   Files that will be configured when using the ldap automount client:

          /etc/sysconfig/autofs
