Fedora is only going to be used as central access point. So we only need to synchronize the Domino(notes) server with Fedora and also the Active Directory server with Fedora. So say I add a user to the Active Directory server. This user then needs to be synchronized to the Fedora server and then synchronized to the Domino(Notus) server....and vice versa. -----Original Message----- From: fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com] On Behalf Of Michael Str?der Sent: donderdag 20 november 2008 13:58 To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project.

Depends on what you want on Domino (Notes). It's fairly easy to add person entries to the Notes address book via Domino/LDAP (needs some Domino server configuration tweaks) but these cannot be turned into real Notes users with ID and mailbox files. If you want to create real Notes users you have to add entries in the certreq database. I'm still figuring out whether I use the Notes client with pywin32 for that or whether to do that via DIIOP (or whether I leave that out and just generate tickets). Several meta directory agents also seem to take the Win32 programming approach with the Notes client. > It also seems quite technical....are there perhaps certain tools which > makes this more easy for you? I'm curious on whether you find open source tools.
