  1. pam_ldap/pam_krb5 Authentication Against Active Directory?

    Ask · Unix · · posted by Cliff · from the interoperability-as-the-goal dept. · 90 comments
    Very Jerry asks: "Here's my problem. I'm currently in the middle of unifying all of our logins here at my place of work because of all the usual reasons (users forget passwords all too often, leaving them more resistant to setting up more complex passwords). Now we have an Active Directory domain setup here, and I was hoping to have all the users authenticate to that. SFU 2.0 is out of the question because it still leaves you to define extra attributes on the user in Active Directory Users and Domains. After a bit of searching, I've found out that pam_krb5 and pam_ldap have been used with success for authentication, but wherever I turn, there are no specific details. I'm currently 2 weeks deep in to this with no progress and a looming deadline. If anyone could point me to some good, specific instructions (specific to Active Directory, not just OpenLDAP) or help me out with a couple tips, it would be much appreciated."
