I have evolved into using freebsd for work group servers over the past years and am now wanting to tie them all together with a synchronized user and group data base. I know NIS has been around and may be considered too unsafe. I've read of rsync'ing master.password and group around.. but I think I want to go with ldap. The first goal is to glue all my fbsd machines togther with shared passwd/group. Then, to include linux clients. Then, to include windows machines via samba - I'm looking for good HOWTO's on doing this. googling freebsd and ldap gives more than 159000 hits.. So, I'm hoping there is someone here who's knows of a 'good' writeup. -- David Bear phone: 480-965-8257 fax: 480-965-9189 College of Public Programs/ASU Wilson Hall 232 Tempe, AZ 85287-0803 "Beware the IP portfolio, everyone will be suspect of trespassing"
