Hi, There is also openfiler which is linux underneath but the one that is drawing my attention right now is gluster....which can be installed on RHEL....so I assume would use freeipa underneath "easily" The idea behind gluster is its a global file system....so its got some very interesting tech for resiliency. I have not tried gluster with IPA yet as Im waiting on access to the AD and replication channel and confirmation it will be sold in AP before I spend more time on IPA.
Ive used Openfiler and Freenas for iscsi and Freenas I didnt find very stable...Openfiler on the other hand seemed bomb proof....I hammered it for 6 months and it never missed a beat...Freenas used to fall over every week... regards ________________________________________ From: freeipa-users-boun...@redhat.com [freeipa-users-boun...@redhat.com] on behalf of Sigbjorn Lie [sigbj...@nixtra.com] Sent: Wednesday, 29 June 2011 4:35 a.m. To: d...@redhat.com Cc: freeipa-users@redhat.com Subject: Re: [Freeipa-users] freeipa and NAS Hi, You could consider using NexentaStor which is also using ZFS, providing a feature rich GUI and CLI for NAS management. I've successfully used FreeIPA 2 with NexentaStor for CIFS, NFS3 and NFS4 + Kerberos 5, having Linux clients connecting to kerberized NFS4 shares, and Windows clients connecting to the CIFS service. I assume anything that supports LDAP will be usable with IPA, at least for user lookup. In my NexentaStor configuration, the NFS service is using FreeIPA (nss_ldap+krb5), and the CIFS service is using Active Directory (nss_ad) for user authentication.
