Amanda McPherson<br>Thanks to our work with its <a href="http://www.linuxfoundation.org/programs/advisory-councils/euc" target="_blank">End User Council</a>
 and other channels, we were able to solicit meaningful information that

Authentication in a Changing Heterogeneous Environment<br>Sponsored by Centrify<br>Linux.com Editorial Staff<br>Tools, it should be noted, change. If they did not, as a rule, then very
 likely we would still be using stone knives and bearskins instead of 
working with these fancy computational devices made of metal, plastic, 
and sand. Or worse, doing all our authentication against NIS in 
enterprise environments...<br><a href="http://www.linux.com/news/technology-feature/security/370258:authentication-in-a-changing-heterogeneous-environment" target="_blank">http://www.linux.com/news/technology-feature/security/370258:authentication-in-a-changing-heterogeneous-environment</a><br>


<br>Set Sights for Windows: Linux Moving Beyond Unix Migration in the Enterprise<br>Joe &quot;Zonker&quot; Brockmeier<br>For years, Linux has enjoyed much of its success as a replacement for 
Unix. Companies turned to Linux to replace Unix servers, or for new 
deployments within a Unix-heavy environment. Linux is still king there, 
but it&#39;s starting to encroach on Microsoft as well...<br><a href="http://www.linux.com/news/enterprise/biz-enterprise/370972:set-sights-for-windows-linux-moving-beyond-unix-migration-in-the-enterprise" target="_blank">http://www.linux.com/news/enterprise/biz-enterprise/370972:set-sights-for-windows-linux-moving-beyond-unix-migration-in-the-enterprise</a><br>


<br>Replace Outlook Webmail with Open Source Zarafa<br>Jack Wallen<br>Looking for a Webmail offering that&#39;s competitive with Microsoft&#39;s

<br>Manage Google Services from the Command Line on Linux<br>Joe &quot;Zonker&quot; Brockmeier<br>I love Web services. I&#39;m just not a fan of always having to use a 
browser as the interface for said services. Google&#39;s services have crept
 into my daily routine to the point that I&#39;m using Gmail, Google 
Calendar, and Google Docs all the time. But I also like doing things 
from the command line, which is why I&#39;m using <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googlecl/" target="_blank">GoogleCL</a> to connect to Google services from the command line.
