I apologize if this is received twice.
Scenario:
AS400 system with username restriction of 10 characters. Considering
installing a "card" with W2k AD installed. Specifically we will be running
Windows 2K server on an Integrated xSeries server. This will allow us to
enroll existing AS400 users & groups on a W2k server. This allows us one
point for administration of both AS400 and W2k set of users.
We currently have a domain controller, or W2k w/AD installation. We did not
restrict the usernames to 10 characters on this system. Other systems that
will be authenticating their usernames against it are also not limited to
10 characters. Our goal is single sign on. We would like to have the users
on the AS400/W2K system to authenticate or replicate to our current W2k AD
installation. The problem is the limitation of usernames. My question is,
is there anyway around having to change all the usernames on the other
systems to match the 10 character limitation? Can I have the usernames on
the AS400 W2K installation link to the current W2k server? I thought with
LDAP you could have numerous names linked to one. If so, how can I do this?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
