LDAP - sanity check

I have recently changed jobs and where i used to work we had kerberos. Here they have nothing resembling central password management or Network Authentication. I have started looking at LDAP but wonder if that is a good choice. we have a solaris/centos environment (no windows whoo hooo) with 4 admin types. Currently each of the systems has a local password and is a bear to try and get passwords changed.

I've never set up LDAP so would also appreciate any recommendations.

Well i guess that says a lot about what you all think about LDAP.

I have been trying to get support for LDAP here for about 2 weeks now. Doesn't seem like many people have experience with it. It is not too difficult over non-SSL port 389. But when you want to make it secure, it gives a lot of problems.

iptables rule sanity check?

why would: iptables -A INPUT -s 180.0.0.0/8 -j DROP along with /etc/hosts.deny rule of ALL: 180.0.0.0/8 not stop traffic to/from 180.x.x.x, which I still see by running iftop? Or could iftop just be showing an artifact and is there a better way to monitor connections real-time? (3 Replies)
