2.5.3.4.4.2 Examples
The following commands migrate the AutoFS map /etc/auto_indirect to LDIF and place
the results in the /tmp/auto_indirect.ldif file:
export LDAP_BASEDN="dc=nisserv1"
export NIS_DOMAINNAME="cup.hp.com"
migrate_nis_automount.pl /etc/auto_indirect /tmp/auto_indirect.ldif
The following shows the /etc/auto_indirect file:
#local mount point remote server:directory
lab1 hostA:/tmp
lab2 hostB:/tmp
The following shows the /tmp/auto_indirect.ldif file:
dn:automountMapName=auto_indirect,dc=nisserv1
objectClass: top
objectClass: automountMap
automountMapName: auto_indirect
dn:automountKey=lab1,\
automountMapname=auto_indirect, dc=nisserv1
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount
automountInformation:hostA:/tmp
automountKey: lab1
dn:automountKey=lab2, \
automountMapname=auto_indirect, dc=nisserv1
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount
automountInformation:hostB:/tmp
automountKey:lab2
You can use the /opt/ldapux/bin/ldapmodify tool to import the LDIF file /tmp/
auto_indirect.ldif that you just created above into the LDAP directory. For example, the
following command imports the /tmp/auto_indirect.ldif file to the LDAP base DN
"dc=nisserv1" in the LDAP directory server LDAPSERV1:
/opt/ldapux/bin/ldapmodify -a -h LDAPSERV1 -D "cn=Directory Manager"
-w <passwd> -f /tmp/auto_indirect.ldif
