> Hi Miguel, Hi Mathias, first of all thanks for your answer.
[... snip ...] > Thanks for looking into this issue. Identity management has been a topic > of discussion in Ubuntu for some time now and freeIPA is definitely one > of project to look at. I came to it following the Netscape Directory Server (NDS) from which the Fedora Directory Server (FDS) derives. I've had the chance of working wit NDS _some_ years ago, and found it a really nice piece of software and engineering. [... snip ...] > All of this looks good.

Main issues are around the samba libs needed: "talloc", "tdb", "tevent" and "ldb". I already posted a couple of bugs to handle this: * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba4/+bug/372399 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba4/+bug/372405 Both of them were discussed in the "freeipa-devel" list, and came out with their support. They are also trying to correct some issues to make SSSD more "debian-friendly". Whenever I find more info, I'll try to share it here and in the FreeIPA packaging team within Launchpad.
