Re: Dynamicallhy Changing Linux Guest Network

2009-09-04 Thread Corey Williams
I think that I may have joined after the original message for this thread so
I am not sure of the use case.

Sounds like you may have a disjoint namespace meaning that you use a
different DNS than Active Directory for your non-windows systems (like
Linux). 

Our DirectControl product seamlessly works in this type environment such
that you can join AD with a different alias than the hostname. Single sign
on with AD still works, you don't need to change the hostname and we have a
raft of other features as well.

Just an FYI.

Best regards,

Corey

 Yeah, you are right and we know.
 The effort and cost to duplicate the active directory environment likely won't
 fly for just Linux on z servers testing.  And the AD servers are not in the
 mainframe datacenter so unlikely that they would suffer the same disaster.
 In our case though, the real event doesn't have any configuration changes
 necessary other than the network routers.
 The best test though is just to go run in the other place for a week or
 whatever.  We'll be doing that too.

 Forgive me ... you realize, of course, that you're not getting a true
 exercise.  Touching prod stuff means there's yet another point
 that's not getting exercised.  (Not to mention the exposure ... test
 things with access to your prod network.)
 
 I have fought the same fight where I work (about changing IP
 addresses).  Others have already acquiesced.  (Gotta pick yer battles,
 I guess, but this hostname and IP addr shuffle drives me nuts.)
 
 I'm probably telling you something you already know.

 It's because of the software we use to interface to Active Directory for
 single signon.   It doesn't want 2 systems coming in with the same hostname.
   If we do that, we can't login to the prod systems :(

 Marcy,
 
 have to change IPs and hostnames
 I can understand that you have to change IP addresses.  But do you have to
 change hostnames?  Maybe have a DNS system that maps the same hosts to new
 i...@s? ... just a thought ...

Re: Active Directory integration for zLinux (SLES and RHEL)?

2009-09-04 Thread Corey Williams
Just an FYI that we have shipped the Centrify Suite on RHEL for IBM Series z
now. Let me know if you want free access to try it out, still looking for
early adopters on the z platform for RHEL or SLES.

Quick link to a chalktalk about securing users and access to linux on z in
case you don¹t know what I am referring to:

 Curious if this is a requirement for folks out there and how they might be
 addressing it, what their experience has been, etc.
 
 Also, we shipped this product for SLES on 390x, we are looking for beta sites
 for RHEL, please contact me if you are interested in either.
