Hi All,
All of you consider Active directory as an LDAP server, this is not
truth, AD is a kerberos environment that LDAP served as a backend (the
first AD server is authentication server, TGS server, KDC, schema
master, and LDAP server).
AFAIK for that kind of heterogeneous environment kerberos is the bast
solution , it's secure, you can kerberized a lot of services (NFS etc.)
Storing the information using LDAP is a great solution, but the way that
Microsoft do it is not the simple way and not the standard way.

Hi Linux-IL members,
I am considering setting up a heterogenous work environment with about
100 high-end Linux work stations, 40 MS Windows, and 10 Mac's. The
underlying common authentication system will likely be LDAP. Would NIS
or Active Directories be more appropriate for this type of environment?
TIA,
