[Samba] Samba/LDAP appliance recommendation
Hi all, What's a good Samba+LDAP appliance these days for a small business? Currently I used a stock Ubuntu server and did all Samda/LDAP configuration manually. I'm looking for something that can allow my regular staff to use as well. 1. I tried most of the popular NAS distros, like FreeNAS, NAS4Free, OpenmediaVault, etc. Most of these NAS don't have an LDAP server built-in 2. I tried Openfiler, ClearOS and Zentyal which do have LDAP server built-in but I haven't gotten them to import my existing Samba/LDAP data yet. WIP. 3. I just discovered Artica NAS Appliance and Univention UCS, will be testing them this week. Do you guys know anything about these two distros? Sometimes I wonder if I even need LDAP, I migrated to LDAP before only to make it a little easier (though not by much) to edit samba account data (e.g. SID). I guess I'd like to have centralized authentication as well (clients include Windows, Mac OSX and Linux, maybe OpenVPN as well). Is there a simpler mode of centralized login operation? Or is LDAP the only viable solution? - Jeff -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
