A possible replacement is already there since a long time: LDAP. There are several LDAP daemons available on Tumbleweed, and I use a container for my small home network: https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Container/Image/openlda
I'd recommend avoiding straight-LDAP; the management tools are weak, making changes can be tedious. Creating a Active Directory domain with Samba4 is almost effortless. It provides a robust set of commands for managing users. It is fast, and clients [members] will cache. It is also something almost all other tools are familiar with. -- Adam Tauno Williams, awilliam@whitemice.org Multi-Modal Activists Against Auto Dependent Development resisting the unAmerican socialists of the Motorist hegemony http://www.mmaaadd.org
