Hi, We are trying to implement Kerberos authentication (through Active Directory) for our Sybase 12.5.3 database (through a client-server Powerbuilder application). We have been told that we need some kind of mapping between Active Directory and Sybase user ID's (for authorization if not for anything else) - i.e. the Active Directory ID needs to be set up as a user in Sybase. However, our AD id's are in the format "firstname.lastname", which is an invalid sybase ID (because of the ".") - Oracle will also have the same issue.
Does anyone out there have a workaround for this? Is the mapping really needed? Thanks!!!
