Hi all
What about moving the user database to LDAP for the FC2 release? It would be possible to integrate also the samba part of the user records directly to the LDAP directory. The only thing we need is a useful ldap administration frontend and the command line tools for creating and modifying the user records from the command line. The most of the command line tools are shipped with the samba source code. It it is desired, i can make a RPM for that.
I'm curious about moving to LDAP server (currently using rdist to sync passwords and groups), but I still haven't found a simple step-by-step guide to setting up the LDAP server and copying password and group data to it. AFAICT, the only existing howtos are so general that I can't tell what to do.
