Hi again
Really struggling with this. I've translated the flat files to this:

dn: automountmapname=auto.master,dc=hh3,dc=site
automountMapName: auto.master
objectClass: automountMapobjectClass: top
instanceType: 4

dn: automountKey=/home/users,automountmapname=auto.master,dc=hh3,dc=site
automountInformation: auto.users
automountKey: /home/users
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount

dn: automountmapname=auto.users,dc=hh3,dc=site
automountMapName: auto.users
objectClass: automountMap
objectClass: top

dn: automountKey=*,automountmapname=auto.users,dc=hh3,dc=site
automountInformation:
-fstype=cifs,sec=krb5,username=cifsuser,multiuser ://altea/users/&
automountKey: *
objectClass: top
objectClass: automount

It will not accept the automountMapName atribute when trying to add it
with ldbadd.

However, in this post:
https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2013-January/170907.html
it seems I'm not allowed to have either the automountMapName nor
automountKey attributes.

How do I do this without those attributes?

There's a wiki item here:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/Schema_extenstions
which I used to extend the schema. It doesn't work as it stands but at
least I seem to have got the stuff into AD now.

Is there anyone who has managed to:
1. Extend the schema to include automounter maps?
2. Constructed automount maps in AD?

Any help most grateful.
Thanks,
Steve
