Michael Szymczak will talk at Noon on September 11 in the FOSS in Other Worlds track.

2010-09-09

BELLEVUE, WA, September 09, 2010 (Press-News.org) Making Linux and Windows play nice together isn't easy, but it's essential to the continued growth of Linux in the enterprise, according to Likewise engineer Michael Szymczak. He will discuss that topic at this year's Ohio LinuxFest 2010 September 10-12, 2010 at the Greater Columbus Convention Center.

"Specifically, I'm going to cover how to use open source tools to authenticate against Microsoft Active Directory (AD) so that Linux systems can work as peers in a mixed network," said Szymczak. "I'll talk about the various open source tools that are available, and what the pros and cons are of each."

Likewise joins desktops and servers running Linux, Unix, and Mac OS to an organization's existing network using AD. This provides a single, secure framework for authentication and access control in mixed networks.

Likewise is also proud to be a Gold Sponsor of Ohio LinuxFest, helping to fund the event and keep it free for attendees. The company will also be exhibiting at Ohio LinuxFest and discussing Likewise Open, Likewise Enterprise, and Likewise CIFS at the event.

Szymczak will talk at Noon on September 11 in the FOSS in Other Worlds track.
