Configure AutoMount CentOS 7
Configure AutoMount CentOS 7
If you use 389 or another type of LDAP, I would encourage you to use this article:

Automount automatically mounts remote shares/directories to a specified folder. Let’s get started, login, and su to root
install the NFS utils, as this is what AutoMount most commonly is used for
now install autofs
from here edit the /etc/auto.master file
in this case we are going to mount our FTP NFS shares automatically, configure the automaster map pointer
from here now all we need to do is configure the auto.ftp map
from here configure, and customize as follows:
save+quit the file, now restart autofs, and set it to run on startup
now if we browse to /mnt/FTP, we should see our 2 virtual folders, and inside of that will be our NFS mount
Additional Considerations:
if you run into issues with LDAP/User mapping, try switching to NFSV3 as the default
change lines 43/44 as follows:
That’s it!
