As the release of NS8 approaches, so does the idea of migrating from my NS7 install to NS8. And with that comes the question of an accounts provider. I’m using OpenLDAP on NS7–do I need to use the same provider on NS8? If so, question answered. If not, though, what would favor OpenLDAP over AD (or vice versa) under NS8? A few points that might be relevant:
My main Neth installation is in a VPS that’s remote to me, and provides one public IP address
I’ll be using Nextcloud and the mail server, but not the file server
I’m not currently using AD
I’m thinking the simplest thing to do would be to stay with OpenLDAP, but if there’s a good reason not to, this seems like the time to make the change.
Hum afaik 636 tcp because ad does not use 389 with starttls, with NS8 you can have only one samba AD due to the 636 tcp port bound to the container but you can have many openldap container becausd the port is not standart and given randomly by the core
the Ad connection is running NS7 with all latest updates applied.
