I'm in a small (< 10 users) shop having OpenLDAP to store users that integrates with Apache authentication, postfix/dovecot authentication and manages users with (patched) phpLdapAdmin but hearing that OpenLDAP may not have a bright future, what should I replace it with for central user management for Linux?
- reqa 8y agoOpenLDAP will not go away, see https://lwn.net/Articles/755207/ https://lwn.net/Articles/755207/ for a current road map. Only RedHat doesn't support it any longer, that's all, no worries.
- h1d 8y agoSeeing how I need a patched version of phpLdapAdmin maintained by a third party instead of the one provided by Ubuntu 18.04 and a lack of easy to use GUI app for LDAP administration, let alone any third party client interface for users to login and change their password, I'm starting to think no one likes LDAP and should move over, perhaps even to MySQL as user management database.
