The -passwd map provides a simple way of configuring automount to distribute user home directories from a single server to any client. Here is an example of how it could be used:

Start automount as:

automount /home/servername -passwd

servername must be the name of the server on which all user home directories physically reside.

On the server, ensure that the user home directories are in:

/home/servername/username

On each client intended to automount users' home directories, ensure that the home directory of each user in the /etc/passwd file is in the form:

/home/servername/username

Inform users to change directories to their home directories on a client machine by entering:

cd /home/servername/username

automount

detects that the /home/servername mount point has been accessed and finds that the -passwd built-in map applies to this mount point.

executes getpwnam, which searches the /etc/passwd file on the local host for an entry for user. If it finds an entry, it extracts the ``initial working directory'' field value, /home/servername/username.

mounts /home/servername from servername

creates a symbolic link from /tmp_mnt/home/servername/username to /home/servername/username

∼

If you wish to distribute user home directories from multiple servers, here is one method:

Create an indirect map, including entries such as:

   john      moscow:/u3/&
   bob       moscow:/u3/&
   jim       moscow:/u3/&
   pat       moscow:/u3/&
   beth      moscow:/u3/&
   louise    moscow:/u3/&
   brad      moscow:/u3/&
   pam       prague:/u3/&
   betty     prague:/u3/&
   mike      prague:/u3/&
   tom       prague:/u3/&
   joanne    prague:/u3/&
   doug      prague:/u3/&
   ∗      milan:/u3/&

When reading this indirect map, automount queries milan for any username it does not find in the indirect map.

For an explanation of the use of the ``&'' and ``∗'' characters, see ``Simplifying map syntax''.

Create a master map with the entry:

   /home    indirect_mapname

To have home directories mounted from the server on which they reside without needing to know the source location, inform users to enter:

cd /home/username

Q. Is there a recertification policy for the MCITP certification?

We no longer require a "refresh" or recertification of the MCITP certification within three years. To better meet our customers� needs, we now retire a certification when mainstream support for the related technology phases out. If you earned an MCITP certification before the policy change, no action is required�the updated policy applies to your certification, which will remain valid until mainstream support for the related technology ends.

Q. Does MCSA equate to MCITP: Server Administrator and does MCSE equate to MCITP: Enterprise Administrator?

No, not exactly. The MCITP on Windows Server 2008 certification requires a new skill set�in some cases, a more robust one�that differs from the skill set needed for MCSA and MCSE certifications.

MCITP: Server Administrator certification covers more operations-related job skills than the MCSA certification.
MCITP: Enterprise Administrator maps to an actual job role profile, whereas the MCSE certification does not. The latter combines technology and job skills.

Q. Are the MCTS and MCITP certifications replacing the MCSA and MCSE certifications?

No. The MCSA and MCSE certifications are not being replaced. There is no change to the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 tracks and certifications. The MCTS and MCITP certifications are for Windows Server 2008.

Q. Am I a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) if I earn an MCITP certification?

Yes and no. The term MCP is used both as a general term for all Microsoft Certified Professionals and as the name of a certification. As an MCITP, you become part of the Microsoft Certified Professional community, with access to all related benefits, information, and activities. You do not earn a certification titled "MCP." You should use the MCITP certification on your resum� and in business collateral, which indicates your specialty and shows that you are a member of the MCP community.

Q. How long will my certification be valid?

All Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS), Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP), and Microsoft Certified Professional Developer (MCPD) certifications retire when Microsoft discontinues mainstream support for the related technology. After a certification retires, it still appears on your transcript but is listed as "inactive." In most cases, an upgrade path is available for people who have that certification, which allows them to demonstrate their skills on the newest version of the technology without completing all exams associated with the new certification. The following certifications will not be retired: Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE), Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA), Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician (MCDST), Microsoft Certified Database Administrator (MCDBA), Microsoft Certified Solution Developer (MCSD), and Microsoft Certified Applications Developer (MCAD).
