open ldap. Ldap is what active directory runs on.

  Subject: [Cialug] Active Directory equivalent?


  I'm working on a project for my Associate's Degree, in which my group has been given a hypothetical company with heavily outdated hardware, and a crappy budget with which to improve the situation. In the interest of saving lots of our budget from licensing costs, we are going with a Linux environment. We pretty much know for a fact is that the people we present this to are going to grill us on all kinds of things, because we will be the first group to break away from a Microsoft environment. The main item that we don't have a ready answer to is Active Directory. Are there any equivalent features for an all-Linux network, and how do they compare with AD?
