Best practices - user accounts setup and administering on 800 systems

2007-12-25 3:49:00

Trying to figure out a standard way to setup and administer accounts on our
huge env with 800+ unix boxes that include
Solaris/HP-UX/AIX/Linux/Tru64/DG-UX/Irix located all over with local admins
controlling bulk of operations? A group of them user NIS and some others use
NIS+ and a large number use neigther.

What are the best practices - is it good to setup an admin server and setup
passwordless root access? Or LDAP setup preferred?

It has become a nightmare to add/delete lot of admin accounts as the number
keep changing.

Any thoughts?

Kind Regards
Jane
