utility.domain15.example.com(172.25.15.9), NFS-exports /netdir to your system, where user is remoteuserX where X is your domain number

remoteuserX home directory is utility.domain15.example.com:/netdir/remoteuserX

Home directories must be writable by their users while you are able to login as any of the remoteuserX only home directory that is accessible from your system

[root@host ~]#systemctl enable sssd.service

I think the NFS exports need to be properly configured too.

I definitely recall needing to enable and start autofs, but I hope I don't mix up the paths for the home directories.

I think we had a similar question about NFS exports in our last mock exam, and I remember needing to check permissions carefully.

I remember we practiced configuring autofs, but I'm not entirely sure about the syntax for the auto.master file.

I feel like I need to double-check the service names; I might confuse sssd with something else.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know Microsoft has some data analytics tools, but I can't remember the specific name. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. The options seem a bit technical, and I'm not super familiar with Cisco Meraki's architecture. I'll have to think this through carefully.
