So, prior to performing the following steps, Tirpitz's security will have to be modified to allow root login.'''

Using LDAP and Automount.
Written for Panther 10.3, and Tiger 10.4.
If you configure the Research Domain on Panther, and later upgrade to Tiger, it does not ruin the setup.

== Configure LDAP ==
* Open Directory Access (in Utilities) and set all items but LDAPv3 to disabled.
* picture goes here

 

* While Selected on LDAPv3, click Configure� and then click Show Options.
** Uncheck Use DHCP-supplied LDAP Server

 

* Create a new ... configuration with the following properties (In Tiger, use Manual mode):
** Configuration Name: Research
** Server Name or IP Address: 209.87.56.238
** LDAP Mappings: RFC 2307 (Unix)
*** Search Base Suffix: dc=iat,dc=sfu,dc=ca 
** SSL is not selected
** Click Edit...
** Go to the Security Tab, check Use authentication when connecting
*** Distinguished Name: cn=Reader,dc=iat,dc=sfc,dc=ca 

 

*screenshot goes here

 

* Go back to Directory Access and in the Authentication and Contacts tabs, Search should be selected on Custom path
With that done Add... /LDAPv3/209.87.56.238

*screenshot

 

== Enable Root User: ==
* Open NetInfo Manager (in Utilities), click Security, and then Authenticate. Log in as someone with admin privileges.
Then click Security again and click Enable Root user. This is required for the next step.

 

== Configure Automounting of Home Directory ==
* Open a terminal (located in Utilities) and switch user to root.
** # su -
* Create the following directories:
** #mkdir -p /home/users
** #mkdir -p /home/projects
** #mkdir -p /home/local/bin 
*Copy files or folders from the lightning server as root:
** #scp root@tirpitz:/usr/local/automounting/usr/local/bin/\*/usr/local/bin
** #scp root@tirpitz:/usr/local/automounting/etc/crontab /etc/crontab
** #scp root@tirpitz:/usr/local/automounting/bin/localshell /bin/localshell
** #scp root@tirpitz:/usr/local/automounting/etc/localshell /etc/localshell 
* Run:
** # /usr/local/bin/update-automount.sh
