Re: Fronting SSH (Linux)Server with Windows repository?

Hi Patrick,

Sorry about the confusion here. What i wanted to do is to use SSH
Server on Linux to handle all the SSH protocol, but the **home
directory** of the user needs to be hosted by a Windows Server share
and the user credentials need to be maintained in Windows AD.

It's a bit convoluted but I am constrained by the requirements.

There are a fwe ways to do that, but one of them would be to use an LDAP
PAM module.

Where would I be able to find these documentations?

Thanks
Toadie.

I'm not sure what you mean by "repository" here, but if I'm following
you, it sounds like you just want to authenticate SSH against AD.

There are a fwe ways to do that, but one of them would be to use an LDAP
PAM module.
