Windows LDAP client authentication
Hi,
I have set up Directory Server 6.0 on 3 Solaris 9 systems and enable replication among those 3 servers. Right now I want to set up a Windows LDAP client to authenticate against the DS server 6 on Solaris 9 systems. What steps I need to follow to configure Windows client? Windows LDAP client will be Windows 2000 servers.
Thanks,

I think you will have to proceed to specific developpements.
A solution would be to synchronize your two directories SUN <==> Active Directory using a meta directory or with scripts.
There are a lot of commercial solutions but it is quick expensive.
The most important problem with the synchronization SUN<==>AD is the password because the two environment are of course not the same :-/
Have a look at soundforge perhaps. I think I saw something about that but I'has been a long time ago.
Hope to help a little with that
Regards

Sun has "Identity Sync for Windows" product (ISW) which syncs in both directions AD<-->DS.
It syncs accounts, password and organizations too. Creation, update and delete operations. You can map AD-DS accounts attributes to get them in sync.
If you want WIN users being authenticated directly on DS instead of AD, you can use pGina (www.pgina.org).
