Has anyone successfully mounted a Windows share based on a user’s login to the system over LDAP? Essentially what we’re aiming to do is, have the users log into their server via SSH, and authenticate using the same Active Directory accounts they use to log into their Windows workstations. Once they’re logged in, they will have their Windows home network share mounted to some directory. Is this possible?
I’ve been using OpenLDAP to handle the authentication part. However, I am getting stuck on the mounting of the network share. I can mount the CIFS shares via the mount command, so I know that’s working. I’ve tried using AutoFS…
File: /etc/auto.master
/directory/path /etc/auto.sharedfs
File: /etc/auto.sharedfs
USERNAME -fstype=cifs,username=USERNAME ://server/path/USERNAME
Is there an easier way to accomplish this, without creating a credentials file that would have to be updated every time the password expires in AD, or is there something I’m doing wrong in the files above?
