[SAGE] LDAP Migration Question

[Nick Brockner <nbrockne@hamilton.edu>]

Hi All,

I am in the middle of putting together a plan to migrate some servers 
from using /etc files for auth/group info to using a new LDAP directory 
I have configured. 

Here is my question:

These machines have all the same users, but they all have different UIDs 
and GIDs locally.  I have already chosen one of the servers to use as a 
migration base (using PADL migration tools), so I have one set of UIDs 
and GIDs on the lDAP server, but if and when I cut all servers over to 
using LDAP, the permissions are going to be all hosed.  I really want to 
use LDAP for UIDs and GIDs so it is consistent throughout my network and 
I can control things better.

Has anyone run into this?  Any suggestions?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
