Looking for an alternative to active directory of Microsoft Windows

Active Directory (AD) is developed for domain networks of Windows. Being a directory service, it’s available for use in most Sever OS of Microsoft as a service.

Some of the available alternatives are as follows.

• Univention Corporate Server: The best alternative to active directory of Microsoft Windows.

• Apache Directory: It is an independent directory but can be deployed only with Apache DS.

• OpenLDAP: It is a multi-OS and open source software.

• JXPlorer: It is a Java powered browser for LDAP having various tools.

• Samba: Being a free and open source program, it provides multiple services to its clients.

Hope that helps.
