Configuring LDAP netgroups

807573Apr 12 2005 — edited Jan 30 2008
I've nearly got my LDAP deployment complete, but one thing I'm missing right now is netgroup-like restrictions for logins. I spoke with a Sun PS guy recently and he recommended this as the preferred method of restricting access to hosts, so I'm game.

The problem I have right now is that I can't seem to find any documentation on how to set this up. Most references using the word "netgroup" are for NIS, naturally. If anyone has solid docs on how to set this up for LDAP I'd appreciate it.

One thing to note is that I'm not transitioning from NIS. I have only DNS in my environment as a naming service, and so I couldn't just run the PADL tools to migrate.

My setup thus far is a 3 master configuration, with 3 hubs, and approximately 100 users, total. Please ask if my setup requires any clarification.

Thanks!

Patrick
