Hi,

Until now we had to manage a few user accounts per Linux server. We create a
local account with the same name as the Windows Active directory
samAccountName and authenticated via Kerberos. But now we’re on the brink of
rolling out large high performance servers with lot's of users which also
share storage across different Linux servers. So it would be much easier to
grant users access based on AD group membership,  but also it's significant
to maintain the same uid/guid across all servers.

Some googling around show a combination of samba, winbind, ldap, Kerberos
and Microsoft Services for Unix, but also RedHat Directory Server which
seems to do it's own uid/guid mapping  without the need of a  AD schema
update.

Any thoughts on what would suite/works best?

Regards,
Andre
