@DigA_UniLeipzig @stbc @caos @uni_wuppertal also ich hab' seinerzeit (2013-2017) nur #UbuntuLTS auf Desktops und Servern dort gesehen, mit wenigen Ausnahmen wie #OpebSUSUE in einigen Laboren.

Würde mich wundern wenn die das umgestellt hätten!

  • Gab jedenfalls auch ne zentrale Nutzerverwaltung samt /home/-Verzeichnis per NFS.

Ob #Labdscape oder nen händisch installiertes #LDAP / #Samba-#AD weiß ich leider nicht!

  • Einfach mal die IT dort fragen?

NRW.socialstbc (@stbc@nrw.social)@caos@plasmatrap.com @kkarhan@infosec.space @DigA_UniLeipzig@wisskomm.social @uni_wuppertal@wisskomm.social Stimmt nicht. Es gibt ne Menge Ubuntu/Debian auf Servern. Und bestimmt auch Menschen mit Linux auf dem Desktop. Aber bestimmt nicht die Mehrheit und auch nicht als gesteuerte Maßnahme.

@SecurityWriter I love it.

Yes, there are other #ldap alternatives out there. #activedirectory is not the only one. While this may be holding a lot of orgs back from switching, it's also important to recognize that many enterprise apps on both the desktop and server sides still require #microsoft #windows.

As a professional #sysadmin in the #banking industry many financial apps *only* support Windows. It makes sense to only deploy the OS where needed and/but there are complexities to managing heterogenous environments. Said complexities aren't always readily apparent either.

Having experienced a Windows to #Linux #desktop #migration years ago, I learned *a lot*. I am, however, all for ditching Microsoft but fully realize it's not always possible.

More for entertainment, got #OpenVMS servers bound to #macOS Server for external authentication.

Had to de-tune some of the network security too, due to limitations on OpenVMS.

Alas, Apple dropped macOS Server.

(Still salty about that deprecation, too.)

Which means further similar shenanigans now necessarily involve a #Synology NAS box or other source of #LDAP or directory services.

Synology NAS and #FreeBSD have together been subsuming what macOS Server had been providing, too.

How the back-end servers shift, too. Decades ago, OpenVMS had been that server for many apps. Even the front-end prior to Y2K, too. Now, not so much.
