Re: [gentoo-user] Is the best solution still NIS+NFS?

Depending on the size of your network, I would look into OpenAFS, Kerberos and LDAP for file, authorization and authentication services. Bye...

[gentoo-user] Is the best solution still NIS+NFS?
Hi list, few years later I setup a environment which shares the /home using NFS for the users and the authentication method was NIS. Is this still the best solution? My current environment is based on LDAP where all services use it. I configured PAM+NSSwitch, Postfix, and so on. Now, I want linux client workstations be authenticated remotely on my LDAP server and mount the users home. What do you recommend? Thanks, Leandro. -- Leandro Melo de Sales.

You can use LDAP + pam_ldap for auth, I think there's a guide on gentoo.org. Thanks, Donnie -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
