Hi

- I did a setup like what you describe for +15000 users. No, that's not a typo.

- should I do that again, I'd go with...::

...

"Centeris Likewise Identity 3.0 is a cross-platform identity management

Thank you.

I saw that page in my searches. Wasn't sure how reliable they were. I guess I need not worry?

I don't know. I did it with SAMBA, Kerberos and all. Later on the university (my customer) contemplated Centeris. To the best of my knowledge, it's been tested but not implemented. So for now, they're on the YaST way of doing things.

Mind you, I don't think it's all that hard...I used YaST on SLED10. I do recall reading a lot, but not really doing a lot... It just works.

Okay, our MS weenie will be back next week. I'll bug him then. I'll put the lappie on the test network and see how it goes.

MS-AD is another matter, it's a real pain when you reach users of this quantity. As I understand it, they hate it. It's cumbersome, slow and expensive. But in true MS fashion, they are now completely locked in. It'l take too much effort to switch to other non-MS products giving the same functionality. Novell's got a few offers as have others (IBM?)

Well, unfortunately, I have no choice. It is weird, but I'm only the manager over the network hardware and not the NOS. (We will eventually reorganize but that's a ways off.) I also manage most of our 70+ in-house and vendor applications but not Exchange. Our retirement system does use SLED and SLES machines as well as successfully running on Groupwise.
