yea i have to agree with Gleb, ldap is prolly your best option,
its easy to integrate with existing infrastructure and most
of new boxes (like network devices etc) will support this for sure

Hi.

Possible option is to disable remote root login to the system, and use
pam_ldap for authentication and sudo_ldap for giving root rights. It
successfully been working for me for a huge bunch of jails on freebsd
servers.

Hello list..

Please share your valuable experience.

I  have operated thousands of linux and w2k servers in the datacenter.
So if I will change the admin(root) password, actually it is impossible..
(because there are so many servers..)

Mainly I use ssh at linux and terminal server at windows server to remote
login.

So is there any good method or solution to solve this problem?
How about radius? is it best solution at my case?
then, anyone who have used radius(free or commercial) well at this
environment?

Thanks for your sharing information.


Regards.
