We have not tried it yet but there exists MKS AD4Unix which is an NT/2000 Active Directory Extension to allow Unix authentication and user information to be stored in Active Directory.

Has anone gotten Linux to update user ID's/Passwords from an NT central domain ? Is it possible to synchronize those, or failing that has anyone gotten Linux security to refresh from RACF or ACF2 secuirity databases, or even authenticate logon using LDAP into RACF or ACF2 instead of manually trying to synchronize Linux user lists/passwords/groups/ etc |---------+----------------------------> | | Joseph Sumi | | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]| | | v> | | | Sent by: Linux on| | | 390 Port | | | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]| | | IST.EDU> | | | | | | | | | 12/10/2002 09:42 | | | AM | | | Please respond to| | | Linux on 390 Port| | | | |---------+----------------------------> > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | cc: | | Subject: LINUX & Security | > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Hello, we have just started to research SUSE Linux under z/VM, and I've been asked these questions: - Does SUSE Linux issue any SAF (RACF) calls for security in the z/VM environment ? If not, how is security handled ? - Are there any types of "SMF" records cut to record access or violations to resources in a Linux z/VM environment ? - Does anyone have a link to more specific security / Linux information ? Thanks.
