Hi Massimo, Would you be able to enter these questions in the 'Answers' section of Launchpad. I am very interested in any answers that you get, and possible even throwing in some suggestions.
I work as a Sysadmin in a Linux development environment and would like include LDAP (single sign-on) authentication. CentOS offers an easy way of adding hosts using their 'auth-config' tool, and I would love to have something similar, and any related tools like those you mentioned. Cheers, Paul Schulz (aka.
