Anyone using OpenDirectory? 2006-04-13 - By Jeremy Hallum
Back
We will be enabling this in the Summer for our RHEL/ OS X environment.
I field tested everything in March on a G4, and it was pretty slick. I
have been using OpenLDAP served from a Solaris 8 box to our combined OS
X/Solaris/RHEL environment for about 24 months, and as we are phasing
out Solaris, it seemed logical to dive for Open Directory. We will
still have to use non OS X tools to enter non-OS X schema (like
automount), but I'm excited about the simplification of the rest of it.
It's really trivial to make a RHEL box see an Open Directory server (I
couldn't believe how easy it was).
