Directory Management

I am looking to play with something at home but not Active Directory. What alternatives are out there? I have heard about Zentyal and its a possibility. Is there anything else that would be better just to learn that would be useful to know?

For Linux, FreeIPA (Identity Management for RHEL based).
For Windows you could do Samba, but I've never set one up.

Linux is fine. Thanks for the suggestion.

No problem. I've used it in production for a while now. It's really easy to set up. It really does all of the work.

NethServer is using Samba on the backend, isn't it?
Yeah, it is. It is just a packaging system similar to Zentyal.

Everything doing AD is either using MS AD or Samba4, those are the only two AD implementations today.

@scottalanmiller What about the Linux versions, which are they using?

MS AD is only on Windows Server. Samba is everywhere else. So all Linux, BSD, Solaris, MacOS, NAS, etc. is Samba.

@scottalanmiller Ok thanks!
