[Freeipa-users] (no subject)

2010-07-28 Thread Juan José Inchausti
Hi all,

I was looking for Penrose and arrive here! I'm facing a big LDAP project
that involves two LDAPs, #users about 750.000, and I think Penrose would
be the right choice. Is Penrose a part of freeipa??? May I use Penrose as
a standalone component??? My apps must access the information stored in
the two big LDAPs, but they only have to look at one LDAP, so I wonder if
ipa can help me, or I have only to use Penrose.

Thanks in advance

It is not at the moment. Penrose is more a migration tool from NIS to
IPA for now.

Yes

If your applications use identities provided by NSS via nsswitch you can
use SSSD and configure it to get identities from the two LDAP sources.
Can you please be more specific about the use cases you have? Do you
need to do searches against to LDAP servers or it is just user identity
and authentication?
Are your applications web applications?


 Thanks in advance

Hi Dmitri,

First of all, thanks for your quick answer...

Well, my apps are web apps.
By the moment, it's only identity and authentication, but my customer
would like not to close doors by the moment. In the future, it will be
possible to get some stathistics from the data stored in the LDAP's
(geographic criteria, for instance)
So, in this right moment, we are starting thinking is the whole
architecture of the solution, and I would like to use a virtual directory
like Penrose, because I think it would give us some flexibility I don't
want to lack for in the future.

Regards
