Hi Everyone.

Pretty new to Novell but I have been searching for a single-sign-on  
solution that will take Active Directory LDAP credentials and provide  
them to eDirectory so that a manually executed loginw32.exe will  
authenticate the user. Also want these credentials provided to  
ZENWorks.

The scenario is that we have a mandated Windows environment which the  
users are logging on to initially (different user names and passwords  
than their eDirectory credentials). Right now, they log in to the  
windows desktop and then have to manually trigger loginw32.exe in order  
to gain access to Novell file services. They also have to manually  
trigger the ZENWorks login so that they can get policies and bundles  
applied.

I’m looking for a solution that will combine the ZENWorks and Novell  
Client credentials and authenticate to everything needed using a set of  
initial active directory credentials.

Is Novell SecureLogin what I am looking for?

Either that, or use IDM to sync eDir and MAD

I don’t think securelogin will help anything here, as it works from  
eDir, and there’s no login to edir yet.

I would like the idea of IDM.
