Hi all just thought I would check to see if anyone in the group has had extensive experience integrating FDS into their organization.
We would like to use FDS as a central authentication server for specific services here however we are lacking tremendously on the side of LDAP knowledge. We may at some point actually hire a contractor to come in and work/train us on this but right now we are still feeling it out a bit. Simply put we would like to have an LDAP repository that would combine our internal active directory and our older SunOne LDAP into one server. We will also want to hang things off of this server such as Radius etc. Some of the questions we have bubbling around in our heads are things like should we bother with setting up replicas or should we simply script ldiff exports and imports. Also has anyone here integrated FDS to AD and would you mind sharing your experiences/pitfalls with us? And if you all think that there is a better product for this please feel free to mention it. I have been pretty fond of FDS since I read Carla's article back in July 06 but if there is a better product for our needs then we would love to hear about it.
PS - If you have any contact information for contractors that you feel would be a good fit for this project we would really appreciate you passing that info along to us.
Thanks Everyone!!!
