Sun's Identity Management software

CNet ran an article, Software maker unites Windows, Unix, covering Vintela Inc.'s software that lets you do single sign on and manage LDAP-based authentication on UNIX/Linux using Windows management tools. The writer's name appears as David Becker.

Maybe David hasn't heard about Sun's Waveset acquisition. Maybe he thinks you'd rather manage all your UNIX/Linux identities through Windows. Maybe you would.

If you'd rather have it the other way around, Sun has quite a bit of Identity Management infrastructure worked out already. Maybe we've spent too much time working on the software, and not enough time working on the advertising.
