BAd homedirectory attributes - Jul. 27, '06, 4:13:29 AM

Hello,
I´m testing mounting homefolders stored on w2k3 server to clients running FC5.
On w2k3 server with SFU installed I have folder C:\homedirs which is shared by NFS sharing and where resides all homefolders of my users.
Now I´m able to succesfully mount homefolder, but problem is that owner and group of parent homefolder (/home/hsimpson) is always set to anonymous uid and gid:
drwx------ 2 4294967294 4294967294 64 Jul 27 08:56 hsimpson

And so all users can browse it.
The attributes of files and folders inside \home\hsimpson are correct.
What should I do to set attributes of folder \home\hsimpson to proper uid and gid, so only user hsimpson can browse it?
Thanks for help.

You should use Username Mapping (aka UNM).
There's good information with the SFU help that's already install.
Give the sections on NFS server best practices and UNM a read.
That should square things for you on uid/gid's.

I have just read both documents you adviced me. But I found no solution for my problem. I can see no misconfiguration in my setup, nevertheless the problem is still the same:
When user unixusr1 log in on linux workstation his homedirectory (/home/unixusr1) is mapped using uid and gid set to -2. But all files and folders in this directory (/home/unixusr1/.bash_history etc.) have proper uid and gid. So all users loged in at the same time can browse his homedir.

You should look at:

I have to change attributes manually using chown and chmod on windows server.
Now I have different problem:
Directory structure looks like this:

g:\class1\user1\
g:\class1\user2\
g:\class2\user3\
etc.

All user´s homedirectories are on linux stations stored in /home/user1/
and this is why I need to define more mountmaps for one mountpoint.
I tried several different configuration that should make this possible
but with no success.
So my question is:
Is there a way how to set more mountmaps for one mountpoint?
Or is there a way how to make autofs to search all subdirectories in
defined directory to find user´s homedir?
Thank you for help.
