UNAB Management

UNIX Authentication Broker (UNAB) lets you log in to UNIX computers using an Active Directory data store. This means you can use a single repository for all your users enabling them to log in with the same user name and password to all platforms.

Integrating UNIX accounts with Active Directory enforces strict authentication and password policies, transferring the rudimentary UNIX user and group properties to Active Directory. This lets you manage UNIX users and groups from a single point as you manage Windows users and groups.

Use the CA Access Control Enterprise Management central policy management capabilities to control access to UNIX hosts by creating and assigning a login policy containing a set of login rules.
