Ok I have looked a couple options but I really dont know how to accomplish what I need to do. Here is what I am trying to do.
I have a greater organization that is stuck on using Microsoft products namely Microsoft LDS. To make matters worse they present the data to my linux servers in a completely non-standard way. Its driving my solaris and linux box nuts and they simply dont want to work with it. What i need to do is continue to use the campus usernames and passwords but present the Data in a format that my linux/unix hosts can use. Is this possible? i.e. userid would still be samwise but instead of a bizzarre OU=monkeypeople,dc=example,dc=com I want it to present as people,dc=example,dc=com. I looked at referral and aliasing but it does not seem to be doing what I am trying to do. Passthrough authentication looks close but I cant find sufficient documentation to actually configure a system to use it. Thanks Daniel |
