Yeah, I've been playing with it some more and it is really nice. I like the searching functionality. Also, I found the security settings and LDAP is there, so I'm going to read some more documentation to figure out how to set up roles so that, e.g., anyone can download but only certain users can upload/deploy. I'm going to forget the idea of bypassing Nexus by using a network share to upload to a repository directly. I think it's better to retain more control and have everyone always go through the Nexus MRM. Lastly, I'm going to put off worrying about GSSAPI/Kerberos support. I'll just hard-code my password in my settings file, or pass it on the command-line if that's supported.
