Moving from NIS to Active Directory

Vintela Authentication Services provides a number of powerful capabilities that facilitate migration from multiple authentication mechanisms, identities, and directories to a single Active Directory-based infrastructure for all systems and users. These tools and features provide organizations with the flexibility to implement the solution at their own pace and specific to their own unique requirements augmented by the safety of roll-back capabilities and “what if” testing prior to going live.

These Vintela Authentication Services tools provide the full range of options from simply allowing Unix systems to authenticate to AD without identity migration or schema modification to automated, full-scale migration and consolidation of Unix identities to AD. These features allow organizations to proceed to the ideal end state (namely a single AD-based identity for all users and systems) at their own pace and specific to their own circumstances.
