Re: Synching UIDs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



You have several Red Hat machines and you want to consolidate the local UIDs? No, this is not supported but there are ways you can make it work. The UID range should be higher than what your local UIDs will be, then your machines will look at LDAP for the information, it does not push, or modify the Linux config files at all.

 

You can create a master password list and pre-consolidate your uids, gids and import them into 389, using  the migration tools. However there is one thing that will be a problem, when the UID changes, the local file permissions are going to break.

Subject: Synching UIDs

 

I'm getting started with 389 server. I have a data center where I want to synch the UIDs across hundreds of Red Hat boxes. I'm starting my way through the documentation right now. I'm assuming 389 has some kind of utility/shell script/something to synch UIDs across unix systems for SSO. 

 

A) Is my assumption correct?

 

B) Can anyone point me to the chapter in the documentation that explains how to do this?

 

Thank you.
