   I’ll trust the majors to compensate rightsholders more than I’d trust tech bros.

   Ah, wow, a blast from the past! I wrote RFC2307 and {nss,pam}_ldap (which, to be fair, weren't the most robust bits of code, but I was a pretty green C programmer back then).

   Noting that MIT Kerberos isn’t shipped with macOS or Windows, although it compiles in both.

   Right, I thought that was the whole idea, like a shuttle?

    It's written in C++ although there is some Swift in it now [1]. The compiler doesn't depend on Foundation though. [1] https://github.com/apple/swift/tree/main/SwiftCompilerSource...

    When the last ObjC framework is gone? Surely that’s decades away. There are zillions of frameworks in PrivateFrameworks, many written in ObjC. The Swift/C++ bridging stuff is pretty exciting though. A lot of engineering is being thrown

    Apple gave me a G4 once when I was contributing to Darwin but, that was a long time ago and the culture may have changed. However I suspect if you had an existing relationship with an engineer there, they'd throw some surplus hardware

    Novell also had a similar sense of humour with the original codename for DSfW.

    Around 2006-7 we added an Active Directory personality to NDS, called Domain Services for Windows. It was an interesting piece of engineering that highlighted both the similarities and differences between the two technologies. (Note that it

    NetInfo did have some good ideas, and I suppose it could have been improved, but the market wanted a standards-based solution. I think macOS was the first commercial operating system to ship with a RFC2307 LDAP client. Jaguar (10.2) had a N

    Good on you! I did something similar (tech to music), the irony is now I am drawn to programming as a hobby as there are some bits of the brain music just doesn’t exercise. On the whole a happier person.

    That (music) will definitely bring the rightsholders out of the woodwork.

    Still popular in some areas of pro audio and video industries. eg. Avid HDX and UAD DSP cards can eat up a few slots, combine that with a SSD and GPU and suddenly your 2019 Mac Pro is full up.

    Actually, the Windows LSA architecture - where both verification of initial credentials (PAM) as well as network authentication (GSS) are remoted via IPC to a daemon - has a lot of nice properties. I believe sssd does something similar on R

    I remember getting that for Christmas when I was like 11 or 12. Don’t think I understood much but I was impressed by the two monitors on the cover. I’ve kept it for nostalgia…

    Well, I guess if you used Hesiod with DNSSEC. But that’s like saying you could use NIS with secure RPC, possible in theory but no one would build such an implementation because the world moved on. Weirdly I did actually implement a Hesiod p
