Hi,

I have got a BaaNERP 5c environment on Linux (SLES 10) in a client/server setup. I want to be able to have my users authenticate via active directory, so I can have a single logon. BaaN user and database user are always the same with the same password.

Has anyone ever implemented something like this, or with Unix instead of Linux ?

How to do this ?

Hi,

My per my understanding - you would like to have mixed-mode authentication i.e Linus with Windows AD authentication right ??

If Yes, then you can try "Samba" -> which is used for mixed mode authentication.

This can also be done with LDAP

I got this to work, sort of......

Our AD accounts use a persons employee number and when you use AD authentication in Baan the Baan audit process appears to have issues with an all number user ID. It seems to gets confused with file permissions.

However, give Samba and winbind a try
