Migrating User Profiles From MS Active Directory


Hello all,

I have around 12 users, with their profiles present on a Windows 2003 Active Directory and I would like to migrate to an open source free alternative.

Could you recommend any alternative that supports the migration of user files from Active Directory?

Thank you,

The first thing that comes to mind is LDAP, possibly combined with Kerberos. I have never done anything like this, so I can't offer you guidance on how to implement it, but here is a link that might help get you started.
