I administer an XServe with 10.2.8 and a lab with 11 10.3 machines. I’m currently trying to find the best way to integrate this system to our universitys Novell network. I’m also upgrading clients and the server to 10.4
What I would like to do is NOT to use novell home directories but serving home directories from our xserve and manage everything else with xserve. Best thing would be to get users and passwords from eDirectory to our xserve and then authenticate our lab to xserve. It would be great if users could easily change their passwords and our system would be in sync with the larger Novell network. What would be the best approach? And how to do it with minimal or no changes to eDirectory?
