Hello,
First, i'd like to thank all of you who are involved in the rsync project.
You do it great.
2nd, i'd like to share with you a problem, which i think could be solved
pretty easily.
I got to set a backup solution. I'm using nasbackup ( nasbackup.com ).
Nasbackup is rsync based ( via cygwin ).
I have a file server, which already have Samba + LDAP, up & running.
I'd like to map rsyncd authentication with LDAP. But as you know,
there's no build-in solution in rsync. So, regarding the most basic
authentication scheme on Unix/Gnu Linux platform, i thought of PAM, which could
be much more interesting, because it could act as an authentication gateway. I
think you know PAM.
Here are my questions :
- Has anyone worked or thought on a similar solution ?
- Is there any other way to extend the classic scheme provided by rsyncd.secrets
?
Thanks :-)
