Hello Again All;
I am still without migrating from an NIS environment to AD/FDS for all of my
machines, Windows as well as Sparc/Solaris 8-10 and Linux machines.
Back in October I started a thread that seemed to have gone nowhere and
would like to restart this thread.
It is my understanding that I must use FDS to serve as the middleware for
auth and perms between my UNIX machines and my AD servers, I have four of
them. I merely wish to have my Solaris and Linux machines use the
credentials on the AD environment versus what I am doing now, YP/NIS.
Has someone done this sucessfully? If so, may I ask if you found a doc
anywhere describing this?
Thank you,
/vp

Vadim,
This is a pretty big topic.
Gary Tay has put together some docs that are a great starting point:
http://web.singnet.com.sg/~garyttt/
Sun's docs regarding Solaris clients will also be useful for you:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-4556
One other thing:
My goal is to migrate my Solaris and Linux machines onto the AD structure
for user, group, hosts, networks and netgroups map use (perhaps other maps
later).
If you mean that you will be using AD as your directory server, you won't
necessarily need to run a separate directory server like FDS.
Good luck!

Hello All;
My current environment is using NIS (not NIS+) on Sparc Solaris 8/10 and
x86 Linux, with a separate AD structure. My goal is to migrate my Solaris
and Linux machines onto the AD structure for user, group, hosts, networks
and netgroups map use (perhaps other maps later).
My questions are:
1. Am I correct in believing that Fedora Dir Server is able to allow me
to auth to my AD DC's? Or does FDS only perform as a conduit to the AD
structure, either fine by me.
2. What and where do I change to aloow this on my pam.conf on my Solaris
and Linux servers?
3. Where do I get the PAM modules to allow this to work?
4. What additional software must I run on my RH/FC FDS server? Should I,
or can I, run two servers in case one fails?
5. Finally, does anyone have any written docs or a site that can help me?
Thanks very much in advance,
.vadim
