[Info-vax] LDAP

Hi.

I have been asked if we can use LDAP against the corporate AD systems
to authenticate our user logins to our OpenVMS system.

Currently on VSI/Alpha.

Anyone that have looked and/or tested these LDAP parts on Alpha?
And if so, any thoughts, findings or something else worth to report?
How does it work with a mixed LDAP/local password verification?

The users to be verified over LDAP/AD are those that have “personal”
VMS accounts using their corporate signature. We also have “workgroup”
accounts for the workplaces in the factory, and they are not in the AD.

The logins are done using plain telnet sessions from terminal emulators.
No ssh here, if that matters in regard to LDAP…

Just starting to look at this…

Regards, Jan-Erik.
