--C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear Colleagues, Do you think there exists a modern solution for centralized user/group/... management compatible with FreeBSD and Linux? I have experience using NIS on FreeBSD for many years, but NIS is really ve= ry dated, not very secure, depends on the NIS servers being reachable all the time, depends on Sun RPC (portmapper, dynamic ports) and has other drawbacks. I know this from experience. Are there any modern solutions for FreeBSD hosts to have at least a common user/userid/group/groupid database, or maybe even more centralized goodies? I've been told that Linux has FreeIPA, but I think it's not fully compatible with FreeBSD, and besides security/sssd wants so many dependencies (even MIT Kerberos as if FreeBSD's built-in Kerberos is not good enough). Any success stories? --=20 Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ --C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJea1AbAAoJEA2k8lmbXsY0meMH+wdrfuEZxF+eTGWMxmHQVMfs X9jgu9ZLLCWmDpBycXLbZygkPtoBxU8T8NJvAu5Si1jTO5MOBwyuMNFtLtG+2gWG yxbqliDDvDDZaBYcfBkkRCCEGhEY1JAjXVmFLZkewUnRZ/CwCdrJXjyNzACQpBdZ kFTlYbKNAztmi3sI1NT1xraKXGEswTNnUly5wtkrQ+z8Ib4xiiZiRX2+RTV3KpXo xYvb+f6tz6/D1iyA4ng1bF5R75CNljYcvHRvyF6eMcHb9S7IiM/f3jbCRSPjHBzE DC2PaN6LGH4jOGlKkI1veEAJS50Nq4xMqJLwsm7h6+2r8V30MmB9peh6IGxbLzI= =d3US -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --C7zPtVaVf+AK4Oqc--
