Hey all, I am looking at deploying a directory server in a small network. Currently looking at Fedora-ds and I noticed that CentOS is currently working on one. Does anyone know if the CentOS-DS is working well at this point? I noticed a how to is up on the wiki and was wondering if maybe it was preferable to Fedora-ds at this point.

However, if I were you, I would look at freeipa: http://freeipa.org/ Thanks, Johnny Hughes -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

And yes, its a good time to start looking at freeipa.org as well - but if you do, its also a good time to start working on some binary packages for freeipa that work with CentOS-4/5 and getting a wiki page up with a howto :D -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
