1. Status of this Memo
.fi
.in 3
This memo describes a directory (LDAP or X.500) schema for storing
amd (Berkely-style automounter) mount info maps. The schema is currently
beeing supported by the (beta version of the) am-utils version 6 package
[AMUTILS].
.ti 0
2. Overview and Rationale
Directory services such as X.500 [X500] or LDAP [RFC2251] are a natural
choice of repository for amd mount map databases. All Object Identifiers
in this document are prefixed by amdSchema-id to be assigned later. The
relation between this schema and the automount schema elements in [HOWARD]
are mostly superficial. The model for the elements in [HOWARD] was the SUN
automounter which has quite a different syntax for mount maps. Furthermore
the intended usage of this schema differs from that of [HOWARD] in many
respects.

3. DSA requirements
Directory servers implementing this schema SHOULD maintain the
modifyTimestamp operational attribute. If not the amdMapCacheTtl
attribute SHOULD be set to 0 indicating to clients that caching of
map entries SHOULD be turned off. Clients wishing to use the amdMap
schema MAY use the modifyTimestamp information to set the ttl for
internal caching schemes. A value of 0 for the amdMapCacheTtl must
result in clients turning off any local caching.

4. Syntax definitions
The following attribute syntax is defined in this document:
amdlocationlist
This syntax represents a amd map value. This is the syntax expressed
in BNF using definitions from [RFC2252]:
amdlocationlist = amdlocationselection |
amdlocationlist whsp "||" whsp amdlocationselection
amdlocationselection = amdlocation |
amdlocationselection whsp amdlocation
amdlocation = amdlocationinfo |
"-" amdlocationinfo |
"-"
amdlocationinfo = seloropt |
amdlocationinfo ";" seloropt |
";"
seloropt = seletion |
optass
selection = keystring "==" printablestring
keystring "!=" printablestring
optass = keystring \":=\" printablestring
X.500 servers or LDAPv3 servers (supporting the binary attribute
option) may use the following syntax definition:
AmdLocationList ::= SEQUENCE OF {
SEQUENCE OF {
location AmdLocation
}
}
AmdLocation ::= SET OF {
CHOICE {
location [0] AmdLocationInfo
notlocation [1] AmdLocationInfo
not [2] NULL
}
}
AmdLocationInfo ::= SET OF {
CHOICE {
selection [0] AmdSelection
option [1] AmdOption
}
}
AmdSelection ::= CHOICE {
eq [0] AttributeAndValue
ne [1] AttributeAndValue
}
AmdOption ::= AttributeAndValue
AttributeAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
attribute IA5String
value IA5String
}

5. Attribute types
The following attribute types are defined in this document:
amdMapName
amdMapCacheTtl
amdMapEntry
amdMapEntryKey
amdMapEntryValue
amdSchema-a OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { amdSchema-id 1 }
amdMapName
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX IA5String
EQUALITY MATCHING RULE caseIgoreExactMatch
--ID { amdSchema-a 1 }
DESCRIPTION
"This attribute is the symbolic and in the naming
context unique name of an amd map. This corresponds
in the case of a flat file database to the name of
the file or the mount-point of the map."
}
amdMapCacheTtl
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX Integer
EQUALITY MATCHING RULE integerExactMatch
--ID { amdSchema-a 2 }
SINGLE VALUED
DESCRIPTION
"The maximum time-to-live for the entries in this
map. After this many milliseconds the map has to
be cleared from local caches and reloaded. A value
of 0 disables caching."
}
amdMapEntry
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX DistinguishedName
EQUALITY MATHCING RULE dNCaseIgnoreExactMatch
--ID { amdSchema-a 3 }
DESCRIPTION
"A multivalued attribute listing the distinguished
names of the amdMapEntries making up this amdMap
object."
}
amdMapEntryKey ::= {
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX IA5String
EQUALITY MATCHING RULE stringExactMatch
--ID { amdSchema-a 4 }
SINGLE VALUED
DESCRIPTION
"The value of this attribute is usually the name of
a mountpoint for this amdMapEntry."
}
amdMapEntryValue ::= {
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX AmdLocationList
--ID { amdSchema-a 5 }
DESCRIPTION
"This is the actual mount information for the amdMapEntry
using the syntax described above."
}
amdMapEntryKey ::= {
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX IA5String
EQUALITY MATCHING RULE stringExactMatch
--ID { amdSchema-a 4 }
SINGLE VALUED
DESCRIPTION
"The value of this attribute is usually the name of
a mountpoint for this amdMapEntry."
}
amdMapEntryValue ::= {
ATTRIBUTE ::= {
WITH SYNTAX AmdLocationList
--ID { amdSchema-a 5 }
DESCRIPTION
"This is the actual mount information for the amdMapEntry
using the syntax described above."
}

6. Object classes
The following object classes are defined in this document:
amdMap
amdMapEntry
defined as follows:
amdSchema-oc ::= { amdSchema-id 2 }
amdMap OBJECT-CLASS ::= {
SUBCLASS OF { top }
KIND auxiliary
--ID { amdSchema-oc 1 }
MAY CONTAIN { amdMapCacheTtl , cn }
MUST CONTAIN { amdMapName , amdMapEntry }
}
amdMapEntry OBJECT-CLASS ::= {
SUBCLASS OF { top }
KIND structural
--ID { amdSchema-oc 2 }
MUST CONTAIN {
amdMapName ,
amdEntryKey ,
amdEntryValue ,
}
MAY CONTAIN { cn }
DESCRIPTION
"An entry of this object class describes mount
information relative to a certain amdMap entry"
}

8. Security Considerations
Due to the security problems posed by NFS care should be taken not to
advertise exported filesystems. Therefore it is often desirable to limit
access to entries carrying amd mount map information to those systems
to which the corresponding filesystems have been exported.
