Hello Everyone, I have been tasked to work on consolidating authentication to achieve single sign-on using Active Directory.

We have mix of Linux and Windows Hosts. All Linux hosts do local authentication currently and Windows hosts authenticates Active directory.

I have been thinking of using Samba to authenticate Linux Hosts against Active Directory. I am fairly confident of configuring straight Linux to AD authentication. But we have 2 Active Directory forests. AD2 is trusted by AD1 and all the Linux hosts will be part of AD1.

The idea is to have a AD1 resource and AD2 users. So we will need Linux Hosts to authenticate users of both AD1 and AD2. I am not sure about how to map uid/gid and also weather kerboros will be able to authenticate both Domains.

If you guys can throw some ideas on how to achieve this, that will be great.

Cheers, LA
