Open source alternative for Active Directory
,----[ Quote ]
| Originally, it was called the Fedora
| Directory Server, introduced in 2005, but it
| was later renamed to 389 Directory Server. It
| can interface with Microsoft's Active
| Directory, and since it is LDAP based it is
| extremely fast and powerful, and can be
| interfaced with from other devices that
| support LDAP authentication. Even client
| authentication is possible (in Linux,
| configuring PAM to use it as an
| authentication service). It also offers a
| full featured console for easy remote
| administration.

Active Directory comes to Linux with Samba 4
,----[ Quote ]
| Enterprise networks now have an alternative choice to Microsoft Active
| Directory (AD) servers, with the open source Samba project aiming for feature
| parity with the forthcoming release of version 4, according to Canberra-based
| Samba developer Andrew Bartlett.
|
| Speaking at this year's linux.conf.au Linux and open source conference in
| Hobart, Bartlett said Samba 4 is aiming to be a replacement for AD by
| providing a free software implementation of Microsoft's custom protocols.
