Authentication in mixed environment best practices
posted by Alexander T on Jan. 5, 2016, 7:14 a.m. (2 days ago)

What do you guys use for central authentication in mixed environment (Linux mainly with some Windows/OSX)? Is it needed at all or just local accounts and working with guest nfs/samba shares is concidered good enough? I'm wondering if I need to implement NFSv4 security or Samba security for our studio shares. We're currently using NFS v3 (Linux) and password protected Samba (Windows/OSX) - around 30 clients in total. I know that NFSv3 is not much secure if you have access to the network with a rooted machine. What are the best practices?
