Will, If you are looking to integrate VCL reservation logins with Novell DS then pGINA may work - it can authenticate Windows users against LDAP (among other auth. plugins). Current stable release (3.0.13.0) has a bug described here - https://github.com/pgina/pgina/issues/99, which interferes with VCL. VCL uses auto-login option to configure image during reservation. With 3.1 release this issue will be addressed.
Linux already has support for LDAP auth and it works fine for VCL reservations. Thanks.
