Hi all,
this is my first post in dhcp-users. I appreciate a lot your
dicussions. Here I found a great source of ideas.
Now my question: we are going to renew our network and the Active
Directory environment. I'm talking about 500 desktops, 50 servers, 20
virtual servers... So, a tedious job!
I'm very interested in migrating some core service from Windows OS to
Linux, and I'm studying how to deploy a Linux DHCP Server (ISC DHCP3)
with SECURE Dynamic Update toward a Windows DNS service.
I opted for the Windows DNS because the staff who will manage this
service, but me, prefer a Windows GUI Management Console instead of
BIND zone files.
And for DHCP, I see that the ISC implementation allow me doing a lot
more tricks.
Now, I think I'm right when I say that Windows DNS accepts dynamic
updates only if clients support GSS-TSIG algorithm... and ISC DHCP
does not.
So, I'm looking for suggestions. Have I a little hope to see this
inter-operation working? How can I?
Thank you for your replies. And excuse my broken english... :)
Bye bye
