Resumen
En la actualidad en Cuba la mayoría de los administradores de red utilizan los sistemas operativos de Microsoft para la gestión de casi todos los servicios de redes. Sin embargo desde abril del 2004 el Ministerio de la Informática y de Comunicaciones (MIC) dispuso la migración progresiva hacia software libre. Uno de los servidores de directorio en software libre más utilizados y que brinda una gran variedad de utilidades es el OpenLDAP que en unión con Samba logran establecer un dominio. Existen diferentes herramientas que permiten la administración del servidor de directorio OpenLDAP de forma visual, sin embargo no permiten explotar todas sus prestaciones y en muchos casos hay que trabajar con línea de comando, provocando rechazo a la migración a software libre.
En el presente trabajo se muestra cómo puede introducirse OpenLDAP y Samba en un ambiente heterogéneo para establecer dominios e integrar recursos en un dominio implementando diferentes servicios utilizando software libre que puede ser utilizado en cualquier empresa. Esa propuesta se hace sobre los servicios de directorios, correo electrónico, acceso a internet y servicios de infraestructura de redes.
Today in Cuba most network administrators use Microsoft operating systems to manage almost all network services. However, since April 2004 the Ministry of Informatics and Communications (MIC) ordered the gradual transition to free software. One of the most used directory servers in free software that provides a variety of utilities is OpenLDAP that in conjunction with Samba get to establish a domain. There are different tools for managing OpenLDAP directory server visually, however they do not allow to exploit all of its benefits and often have to work with command line, causing rejection of the migration to free software. In this paper it is shown as OpenLDAP and Samba can be introduced in a heterogeneous environment to establish domains and integrate resources in a domain, implementing different services using free software that can be used in any company. This proposal is made on directory services, email, internet access, and network infrastructure services.
