How about winbind with a ldap backend? winbind creates the uids/gids and the rest just run nss_ldap? I currently use an ldap directory to store the rids but I don't remember if they have been translated to uids/gids or whether the winbind modules do that... _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
