Truthfully you can integrate Window to FDS using PGina there is a link on the DS Wiki somewhere. Here it the e-mail, it was geared towards OpenLDAP but I had it working on Sun DS server, which is very similar if not the same as FDS 1.0 ---- Start of Paste ---- Hi all, Here is my OSX authentictaion to OpenLDAP HOWTO. http://www.tcd.ie/People/Paul.Reilly/MacLDAP/ It assumes no knowledge of OpenLDAP but it does assume knowledge of Linux, installing packages etc. I assume you have this as you are on the OpenLDAP list... :) NOTE 1: Please note that I'm NO EXPERT on LDAP at all. If you asked me this time last year how it worked, I wouldn't have known! The info contained in the HOWTO is what I have discovered since last September when we decided to deploy MacOSX in on 120 iMacs in college. Apple has very little documentation on this (bad Apple!) and this info is pieced together from various websites and trial and error experimentation. NOTE 2: Whats contained here is just a _basic_ authentication setup. It doesn't cover the following topics, but these are possible and we have them working here (docs in development) * LDAP over SSL/TLS working OK (this should be the default in production environment) * Auto-mounting of $HOME directories from a Windows/Linux smb:// or Mac afp:// file share for each user (see HOWTOS at http://www.jamfsoftware.com) * OpenLDAP passthrough Authentication to a window PDC (keep attributes in OpenLDAP, but use PDC for auth) * Account Lockout/Expiry (for this see Apple's Open Directory mappings) As you'll see my HOWTO is a work-in-progress. If you find it useful to you, please consider sending me a postcard from your part of the world.
