Configuring SSO against Active Directory

Hi managers,

Could anyone point me at an updated Best Practice or details on how to
get Tru64 5.1B users authenticating from the user database on
ActiveDirectory.

I've followed the Tru64 Security Administration manual, so have installed
the relevant extensions to the ActiveDirectory schema, and MMC
extensions, however I can't get a telnet session to authenticate using a
Windows username and password.

I think I'm probably hitting a username length issue somewhere, but I'm
not too sure. Our windows usernames are generally longer than 8
characters...

On the one attempt I got something other than login incorrect I saw the
following in the sialog file:

SIA:EVENT Wed Jun 4 16:54:55 2003
Successful session authentication for firstname_lastname on /dev/pts/2
SIA:EVENT Wed Jun 4 16:54:55 2003
Successful establishment of session
SIA:EVENT Wed Jun 4 16:54:55 2003
Successful launching of session
SIA:ERROR Wed Jun 4 16:54:55 2003
Failure in local launch mechanism.
SIA:ERROR Wed Jun 4 16:54:56 2003
Failure to launch session


Any pointers would be gratefully received.


Cheers,

Rob Leadbeater
