Which of the following statements about automount in a FreeIPA domain are true? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C, D

Automounting in a FreeIPA domain involves several key aspects:

Base Configuration File (/etc/auto.master): The auto.master file is the main configuration file for the automounter. It contains the master map which defines mount points and their corresponding maps. This file is crucial for setting up automount points.

Example entry in /etc/auto.master:

plaintext

Copy code

/home /etc/auto.home

SSSD Requirement: In a FreeIPA domain, automount requires the System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) to be installed and configured on each client. SSSD is used to retrieve automount maps from the FreeIPA server, enabling the automount feature to function correctly.

Example configuration in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf:

[sssd] services = nss, pam, autofs config_file_version = 2 domains = example.com [domain/example.com] autofs_provider = ipa ipa_server = _srv_

I bet the answer involves a cryptic incantation and a dance under a full moon. FreeIPA is like magic sometimes.
