Kenneth,
I'd be interested to know if this worked for you. Did you have to do
anything specific that's different to that guide to make it work with W2K8?
Thanks.

I'm not sure I understand why you'd want to do that. After you've
installed AD Services Identity Management for UNIX, you can specify a
user's primary (AD) group under his AD properties under the UNIX
Attributes tab.
Then you basically assign/change permissions on the Linux system as
username:ad_group_name.
I think the idea is that you'd use AD groups for file/folder access and
not the Linux groups anymore, although the Linux groups could still be
used if you wanted to.
I'm a bit rusty on this but I believe that's what I wanted to achieve,
anyway.

Great, thanks, I got it working.
Currently, our linux users all are member of a posix group of the same
name
(i.e user "kenneth" is member of its own group "kenneth", which is the
default in linux as far as I know). Do you know how I can create such
groups
on AD, instead of adding users to shared groups such as "unixusers"?

you'll have to make adjustments with W2K8, but it may be a good starting
point.

Thanks for your reply.
I would like the account and group information to be maintained in AD.
Possibly later on we'll implement kerberos too.

If you just care about authentication and not accounts, I'd set up
kerberos
auth - much easier. I have no experience setting up LDAP auth, sorry.

Subject: Configuring RHEL servers to authenticate with Windows Server
2008
Active Directory
Hello all.
I'd like to set my RHEL 4 and 5 servers up to authenticate with our
Windows
server 2008 Active Directory. Using "authconfig --update --enableldap
--enableldapauth
--ldapserver=ldap.example.com--ldapbasedn=dn=example,dn=com"
and adding "binddn" and "bindpw" to the /etc/ldap.conf file, it looks
like
the linux box is connecting correctly to the AD server. But running
"getent
passwd <some-linux-user-defined-on-AD>" doesn't return any result.
I'm suspecting that maybe it's my nss_ldap attribute mappings that are
not
correct. I have no attribute mapping defined, since I would think that
there
would be some default mappings that would work. Are there any default
mapping, and in case what are they? Or maybe "authconfig" set up these
mappings automatically? Any advice is appreciated.
Best regards,
Kenneth Holter
