[-- Attachment #1 --] 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 very 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? -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJea1AbAAoJEA2k8lmbXsY0meMH+wdrfuEZxF+eTGWMxmHQVMfs X9jgu9ZLLCWmDpBycXLbZygkPtoBxU8T8NJvAu5Si1jTO5MOBwyuMNFtLtG+2gWG yxbqliDDvDDZaBYcfBkkRCCEGhEY1JAjXVmFLZkewUnRZ/CwCdrJXjyNzACQpBdZ kFTlYbKNAztmi3sI1NT1xraKXGEswTNnUly5wtkrQ+z8Ib4xiiZiRX2+RTV3KpXo xYvb+f6tz6/D1iyA4ng1bF5R75CNljYcvHRvyF6eMcHb9S7IiM/f3jbCRSPjHBzE DC2PaN6LGH4jOGlKkI1veEAJS50Nq4xMqJLwsm7h6+2r8V30MmB9peh6IGxbLzI= =d3US -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
