A long time ago a asked the developers to implement nsswitch compatibility on OpenBSD, for sake of having user automatic syncronization on AD. The answer was not positive.
There is also a patch that implements this hanging around. Got to ask Google :-) Maybe it's time for OpenBSD to become more competitive and introduce industry standards on its userland. 2008/2/8, Leonardo Rodrigues <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > I'm not sure I fully understand: > > I was under the impression that NT, up to NT 4, used the PDC/BDC > > model, and W2K and later used AD.
