Re: Authenticating Windows 2003 users to a central LDAP

Hi Ahmad,

FYI: The Domain Controller itself contains a LDAP
server.

Thanks,

Hi,

I am not sure if this is the proper list for this...
but any help would
be appreciated...

We are running a Windows 2003 R2 server whose domain
is used for user
and workstation authentication for a portion of the
university
population. We wanted to tie this domain lets call
it systems.private
into the university wide ldap server lets call is
ldap.nyu.edu which
stores university wide usernames/passwords etc.

This way users who are part of the domain (remember
we only want users
who are part of the domain to have access) would be
able to login to the
domain.. using their IDs and passwords provided by
the university.

I am not sure if this makes any sense...

so to recap

a) User tries to log into the domain with his id and
password.
b) The domain controller checks to see if the user
id is in its database.
c) if it is, it forwards the credential to the ldap
server for
authentication.
d) if the ldap authenticates, the user is allowed to
login...

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Sincerely,

Ahmad S Arshad
