NFS exports

Task 1:

Configure autofs to automount the home directories of LDAP users as follows:

host.domain11.example.comNFS-exports /hometo your system.

This filesystem contains a pre-configured home directory for the user ldapuser11. ldapuser11's home directory is host.domain11.example.com/rhome/ldapuser11.

ldapuser11's home directory should be automated locally beneath /rhome as /rhome/ldapuser11

Home directories must be writeable by their users.

ldapuser11's password is password

Solution:

useradd ldapuser11
passwd --stdin ldapuser11
mkdir /home
yum install autofs
vim /etc/auto.master

#add the line into auto.misc file
/rhome /etc/auto.misc 

# add the line to auto.misc file
ldapuser11 --rw,sync host.domain.example.com:/rhome/ldapuser11
systemctl restart autofs
chown -R ldapuser11:ldapuser11 /rhome/ldapuser11
chmod 700 /rhome/ldapuser11

Task 2:

Some users home directory is shared from your system. Using showmount -e localhostcommand, the shared directory is not shown. Make access the shared users home directory.

Solution:

yum install nfs-utils -y

vim /etc/exports
/home 192.168.0.0/24(rw,sync,no_root_squash)

systemctl start nfs-server
systemctl enable nfs-server
exportfs -a
showmount -e localhost
