I have a Mac OSX Lion Server that is running Open Directory. I am using the Mac's LDAP for authentication in several webapps running on Centos 6 and it works great. I want to use same setup for authenticating Centos 6 system accounts, but have a problem. Authenticating with usernames / passwords works fine. However, mapping user home directories is a problem. When a user authenticates for the first time, Centos 6 creates the user's home directory as /Network/Servers/<server>/Users/<username>. This is appropriate for the Mac environment, but I would prefer to have /home/<username> for the Centos environment. Is there a way to override what values are being used for generating user home directories in Centos?
