That might work. I remember at one point there was an open source project to write an NIS to LDAP gateway - a quick search of google turned up nothing.Hello all, my company is currently considering moving from NIS to LDAP. I've begun this project using Sun's Directory Server (Sun One or Sun Java One whatever it's called these days). Their NIS server has a useful feature in that one can leave the NIS daemons running and configure them to use your LDAP store as their backend. This would be perfect for us as our network contains many old Unix hosts that cannot do LDAP and will need to rely on legacy NIS for some time. However, we'd like to be able to enjoy the other benefits that LDAP offers and migrate the rest of the clients at a more leisurely pace. You can see details on Sun's N2L setup here: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-4556/6maort2tt?a=view Now, I realize that this may be out of the scope of the FDS project, but I thought someone here surely must have needed to do the same thing. Any suggestions? I guess I could potentially use Sun's N2L setup against a FDS back-end...
