No, MIIS is not being used.  I don't believe that the Security Group
reviewed the product.  They are about to pilot/implement CA Enterprise
Admin.  Like MIIS, it has hooks into some of the major LDAPs and is
supposed to be very scriptable.  In fact, although they have an AD
integration piece, the direct feed into AD violates part of my principle
design for our AD infrastructure, which is to force all AD Object
Change/Add/Moves to go through the Aelita EDM product to enforce business
rules and data consistency.  CA has stated the integration should be able
to be done completely via scripted integration...we're about to find out.

How are other companies doing directory services integration.  How was that
tied into an authentication strategy?

Are you looking at MIIS as an account provisioning/automation tool?

Thanks all for the feedback.

We are a very centralized shop as well (and seem to be on a company
buying spree...).  The Enterprise Security team really wants to make AD
the strategic direction for authentication strategy as well part of a
staged user provisioning and automation mechanism. I/We are about to
undertake a massive leap in automation, business rule enforcement, and
data integrity as it relates to the Windows Server Platform...roled into
our fledgling AD migration.  And I gotta say, VBScript is an admin's
best friend. [mine anyway]
