Hi,
Does CentOS 5 / RH 5 ship with a similar windows active directory and
able to support windows workstations? I've of heard OpenLDAP and FDS.
Does windows support those?
AD is sorta LDAP, but Linux doesn't come with the schema, and I'm not at
all sure it's going to happen any time soon*. Even if it does, unless it
comes with a GUI to match Microsoft's, you'd have rocks in your head to
try to do it.
Linux can authenticate against AD though.
* Apple's OS X Xserv comes with openldap and a gui, but it doesn't
equate to AD either.
