Windows AD for Unix authentication
I am not an expert in Unix at all. My knowledge of Unix is average. We have a couple of Unix servers, Solaris and Linux, which run mostly web servers, and Oracle databases. Currently users have multiple user IDs for Unix and AD applications. Is it possible to make use of the Windows Active directory as the authentication provider for Unix users? Can this be done at all? I was reading on Windows Service for Unix. But not very clear if it does provide direct AD authentication for Unix boxes? We would like to centralize the authentication to just one provider, the AD. Appreciate any inputs.
