Hi. For a while now we've been working on integrating Red Hat Directory Server (RHDS) with Active Directory on Windows 2003 server. What we're working on is syncing users and groups from AD over to RHDS, and using these AD groups to populate corresponding netgroups so that we can control which users are allowed to log into which groups of servers. The netgroups are also used for controlling the users' sudo access to our servers. In other words, we use AD groups to populate access- and sudo-related netgroups on the RHDS side. Our aim it to control access, and maybe even sudo, from the AD side. Our organization have recently upgraded to Windows 2008 server, and I was told that this version is posix aware. So I'm wondering if maybe we can maintain all this posix and netgroup info on the AD side, instead of syncing info over to RHDS and having scripts that populate the netgroups. Have anyone else here looked into using Windows 2008 server for linux authentication, and have some input on how suitable it is for controlling access and sudo for a linux environment?
