*** FTP MAINTENANCE *** ftp.shekinya.net on April 27, 2013

All FTP Users,

I will be performing some maintenance on the FTP server Saturday, April 27th. There will be a brief outage while I attempt to integrate this server to use Kerberos/NTML Authentication (Active Directory) as opposed to PAM. This will change how you logon to the server. Instead of using PAM authentication on Linux, you’ll be using Kerberos for authentication (on Windows Server). This shouldn’t impact any users when they login; when I create a Windows user and Linux user (passwd, smbpasswd), I use the same password for each. The problem will be when I need to re-$HOME everyone’s user directories.

Thank you,
Eric.
