I'm interested in setting up a small setup that would be a centralized authentication. With my work experience I would lean to AD and LDAP, but I don't run any Windows boxes and don't understand raw LDAP. Any suggestions? I have to think there's a good solution for small organizations. I could just Chef it based on databags, but that doesn't let users change their own passwords, which I see as a major downside.
I've heard good things about 389DS, though I never got around to actually using it myself. Chris St. Pierre used to be very active in that project, and he was really helpful when I was trying to figure it out (unfortunately, the project got crowded out by other more urgent things, and then I left that job). OpenLDAP in itself isn't too hard to administer. However, I've never been the guy to set it up from scratch. :) Symas has a good support contract with good documentation, if you have some money to spend and need some help in getting it up & running. -- Brad Beyenhof . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . http://augmentedfourth.com Without education, we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously. ~ G.K.
