NFSv4 might be more tricky to setup on a SAN device and may or may not work depending on the software/firmware of the device. NFSv3 is a well supported protocol across SAN vendors and you should not have any problems setting that up. I've used Openfiler on a white-box SAN with home dirs and automount maps which is working fine for us.<br>I wonder if you could do some sort of CIFS home dir automount with a SAN that is joined to an AD domain which is trusted by FreeIPA? Seems like this would be feasible.<br><br>-Mike<br><br><blockquote style="padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 0px; border-left: #0000ff 2px solid; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif; color: black;">-----Original Message----- <br>From: "Ben .T.George" <bentech4you@gmail.com> <br>Sent: May 18, 2016 7:38 AM <br>To: freeipa-users <freeipa-users@redhat.com> <br>Subject: [Freeipa-users] AD users home directory automount <br><br><div dir="ltr">HI LIst,<div><br></div><div>Is it possible to mount home directories of AD authenticated users from external source(like san or fileshare)</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Ben</div></div> </freeipa-users@redhat.com></bentech4you@gmail.com></blockquote></div></div></body></html>
