Is there a way to ignore or alter the LDAP homeDirectory on select Linux clients, i.e. workstations?
End Goal:
I'm trying to use our LDAP user database, while keeping the home directories on the SSDs of our workstation, but mounting our shared home directory under the same path.
Background:
I'm working on a heterogeneous HPC cluster + workstation environment, which share NFS and LDAP. The LDAP configuration includes the homeDirectory attribute, which is correctly read on all machines to be on the NFS share (or BeeGFS on the clusters).
The ldap server is running openldap, while the workstations are running nscd with the appropriate /etc/pam.d/common-password and /etc/nsswitch.conf changes.
Additionally, I've set up a test workstation with nslcd, in order to alter the homeDirectory value via /etc/nslcd.conf, as described in LDAP Users Home Directories.
For the cluster nodes, everything is peachy, and the home directories are on the shared network drive (via BeeGFS in this case).
For the workstations, I'd like to use the local SSDs for local home directories, but still mount the cluster home directories under their exact paths, since many users use absolute paths. I don't mind the different ~user and $HOME paths.
What's the proper way of overriding the homeDirectory attribute machine-wise?
