NAME
       ipa-client-automount - Configure automount and NFS for IPA

SYNOPSIS
       ipa-client-automount [OPTION]... <location>

DESCRIPTION
       Configures automount for IPA.

       The automount configuration consists of three files:

       o      /etc/nsswitch.conf

       o      /etc/sysconfig/autofs

       o      /etc/autofs_ldap_auth.conf

       By  default this will use DNS discovery to attempt to determine the IPA
       server(s) to use. If IPA servers	 are  discovered  then	the  automount
       client will be configured to use DNS discovery.

       If  DNS	discovery  fails  or  a	 specific  server  is desired, use the
       --server option.

       The default automount location is named default. To specify a different
       one use the --location option.

       The  IPA	 client must already be configured in order to configure auto‐
       mount. The IPA client is configured as part of a server installation.

       There are two ways to configure automount. The default is to  use  sssd
       to  manage  the	automount maps. Alternatively autofs can configured to
       bind to LDAP over GSSAPI and  authenticate  using  the  machine's  host
       principal.

       The  nsswitch automount service is configured to use either sss or ldap
       and files depending on whether SSSD is configured or not.

       NFSv4 is also configured. The rpc.gssd and rpc.idmapd  are  started  on
       clients to support Kerberos-secured mounts.

OPTIONS
       --server=SERVER Set the IPA server to connect to

       --location=LOCATION
	      Automount location

       -S, --no-sssd
	      Do not configure the client to use SSSD for automount

       -d, --debug
	      Print debugging information to stdout

       -U, --unattended
	      Unattended installation. The user will not be prompted

       --uninstall
	      Restore the automount configuration files

FILES
       Files that will be always be configured:

	      /etc/nsswitch.conf

       Files  that  will  be  configured  when	SSSD  is  the automount client
       (default):

	      /etc/sssd/sssd.conf

       Files that will be configured when using the ldap automount client:

	      /etc/sysconfig/autofs

	      /etc/autofs_ldap_auth.conf

EXIT STATUS
       0 if the installation was successful

       1 if an error occurred
