Summary How can I utilize autofs to automount CIFS shared home directories (or other shares) hosted via Samba?
How can I utilize autofs to automount CIFS shared home directories (or other shares) hosted via Samba?
You can certainly work around the above two points by running the autofs daemon as an AD user, or migrating root to AD and this will allow the share(s) to be automounted. However, because the daemon still runs as this user and shares are mounted as this user, everyone will be mounting as the single designated user and the share will be accessed as this single user, with files created owned by the same. Thus, this workaround is not feasible.
