Autofs Security Restrictions
The nosuid
option prevents users from creating files with the setuid
or setgid
bit set.
This entry overrides the entry for /home
in a generic local /etc/auto_master
file. For information about the generic local /etc/auto_master
file, see Setting Up a Common View of /home. The override happens because the +auto_master
reference to the external name service map occurs before the /home
entry in the file. If the entries in the auto_home
map include mount options, the nosuid
option is overwritten. Therefore, either no options should be used in the auto_home
map or the nosuid
option must be included with each entry.
Note:
Do not mount the home directory disk partitions on or under/home
on the server.
