Diseño e implementación de una solución de integración de autenticación entre plataformas Windows y Linux, utilizando el directorio activo de Windows como controlador de dominio

Abstract

This project solve the problem in the authentication service users, by the presence of hybrid environments in companies, allowing two alternative authentication service integration between the Linux and Windows platforms are raised, using the Windows operating system domain controller, so servants were employed and virtual workstations on both platforms for running the tests, being used in the Windows environment Windows 8 work station and server Windows Server 2012 R2 and the Linux environment work station Ubuntu 14.04 and as CentOS 7.0 server. Integration methods that were used in this project were System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) and Winbind, which involve protocols Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and Kerberos. Both methods allow Linux clients to authenticate with the Windows domain controller, obtaining centralized management of users. It should be mentioned that SSSD is chosen as the ideal alternative for being relatively new and less complex but equally adaptability Winbind limited only by using the LDAP protocol, which unlike Winbind does not have backward compatibility directory access protocol.
