Hi all,

I’ve just setup OTRS on my CentOS 5 box and I want it to authenticate the users against an active directory running on Windows 2003 Server.

I’ve read somewhere that you need to load Windows Services for Linux in order to have additional UNIX options on an Active Directory user.

I did not read anyhting about this in the OTRS manual... so I was wondering if this is a necessary step.

Needless to say that my attempts to log on to the AD from the OTRS web interface are failing.

PS : A second question also... does the CentOS box need to be “on” the domain? Is this even possible?

Thanks
Jan
