Neil Waybright
IMPORTANT: Please be prompt, as we plan to start at 7 pm SHARP
!! The building is locked at 7 pm and anyone who arrives after that time will
require a Sun employee to escort them to the meeting. It is also highly
probable that those who arrive after 7:30 may not be able to attend the
meeting.
A few years ago, we hosted a presentation on how to set up a heterogeneous
environment using LDAP. Now, we will learn how to bridge Unix/Linux to Windows
Active Directory without LDAP, Kerberos, or any additional software on either
side.
At the December meeting of UUASC-LA, our own Neil Waybright who has spoken to
us many times in the past, returns to explain how to inter-operate in a single
environment by using the same AD 2008 setup that one's Windows hosts
authenticate against.
Neil will cover configuring Active Directory to manage credentials and support
Kerberos for UNIX clients, and then he will explain what work is required on
Solaris and Linux clients to authenticate against a newly configured AD
environment. He may even perform a live demonstration.
Neil is a systems engineer with more than 20 years of experience who now works
for a large storage vendor. He has spoken at UUASC at least once each year
since 2002.
Active Directory and UNIX/Linux
The chocolate cream pie is a particular point of interest ;-)
222 N. Sepulveda Blvd, Suite 1800, El Segundo, CA 90245 10th floor, to the right of the elevators. Use the elevators on the west side of the building This is one of the huge white "Pacific Towers" buildings. The one with "Oracle" on the top, funnily enough... From the 105 freeway: Take the Sepulveda (aka hwy 1, aka airport) exit, but go SOUTH. It's about a kilometre down Sepulveda, on the left. Take a left just BEFORE the building, on Grand avenue, and turn into "Visitor Parking" From the 405 freeway: Take the exit just south of the 105 (El Segundo Blvd) Go west for 2+ miles on El Segundo Blvd. Turn right onto Sepulveda Boulevard. Stay in the right lane and take another right onto Grand Avenue. Pass the building on the corner completely and turn into the second driveway on the right were it says "Visitor Parking." Parking: Parking in the adjacent structure appears to have cycled back to non-free, for now.Here's a map for ya!
