The LDAP-UX Integration product uses the Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP) to centralize user, group and network information
management in an LDAP directory. LDAP-UX integration enables the LDAP
directory to be used as a single source repository for HP-UX authentication,
authorization, user data and account management. The LDAP-UX Integration
product includes the following subcomponents:
LDAP-UX Client Administration Tools and Migration
Scripts
LDAP-UX Client Services contains pam_authz and the Mozilla LDAP C Software Development Kit (SDK) two subcomponents.
LDAP-UX Client Services simplifies HP-UX system administration by
consolidating account, group and other configuration information into
a central LDAP directory server. The LDAP-UX Client Services software
works with a variety of LDAP v3 capable directory servers and is fully
tested with Red Hat Directory Server and the Microsoft Windows 2000/2003/2003
R2 Active Directory Server.
The LDAP-UX Client administration tools can help you to manage
data in an LDAP directory server. Migration scripts can be used to
convert NIS, NIS+ maps or corresponding /etc files
into LDIF files and import them into an LDAP directory server.
NIS/LDAP Gateway is a Network Information Service (NIS) that
allows an NIS client to use an LDAP directory as its repository for
NIS maps. This product provides an NIS to LDAP Gateway which converts
NIS rpc requests into LDAP operations.
