The Network Repository team would like to propose a "Naming Services"
community dealing with our codebase. We are primarily responsible for
developing and maintaining naming and directory services and fit under
the umbrella of approachability and interoperability. These include
Native LDAP, Name Service Switch (NSS), Active Directory
interoperability, user identity and authentication, NIS (YP), and legacy
naming services such as NIS+.
The goal of this proposed community would be to engage users, sys
admins, developers and others to contribute to developing
interoperability solutions and improving the existing naming
infrastructure in OpenSolaris.
The leaders of this community will participate and observe the
approachability, security, sysadmin and networking communities as well.
We will also cross post any discussion pertinent to any of the
above communities.
I'm complete agree. I think its time that such a community existed.
Thanks, Ben.
I'm planning to start writing a bunch of documentation on the topic of
LDAP and Kerberos shortly. A community where people could be directed
to and become more involved would be a great compliment.
That's what we are hoping for with the creation of this community.
We can definitely put pointers to related documents off of the
community pages, once approved and set up.
