That's kind of what I thought so I lost interest. Only syncing
accounts and passwords is useful but not quite useful enough.
A quick look at the website for Likewise Open shows it seems to do a
lot more than when I looked at it. I'll have to play with it again.
Thanks for the update.

It's been a long time since I looked at it but I seem to remember
that I couldn't pull group membership from AD; only username and
password.
You are saying at this point I should be able to have a www group
within my AD, then when logging into my web server I can have the AD-
group members modify files owned by www on the web server?

Do you mean group membership when you say "assign permissions"? Or are
you talking about actual file-level permissions? (Which you would set
and manage via groups anyway.)

I played with the free/simple version awhile back and it worked just
fine. I still had to assign permissions within Linux but for basic
authentication and password sync it works fine.

"Likewise Open integrates Linux, UNIX, and Mac computers in Microsoft

Apparently it's not the same as just using a PAM.
