LinuXchangE (LXE) is the project of my degree as a computer engineer. The project aims to remove all end servers using Microsoft technology infrastructure and maintain client-side Windows computers as transparently as possible.
Among many features it has, the most outstanding are:
- One login account for everything. If your username is Miguel, then you will use that username and the same password for all the infrastructure services.
- Solid core. LXE has a small core where all information is stored.
- Openness. Because of the use of standard technologies, you can integrate your projects to the core. You can link authentication by LDAP, PAM, Kerberos, IMAP or NTLM.
- Standard services. Among many services, the most notable are mail, storage, IM, and web browsing.
LXE takes advantage of the following projects:
- Samba
- OpenLDAP
- Heimdal
- Postfix
- Squid
- PAM
- and many others
Sadly, LXE development was stopped because there were more occupations to do for a living. Anyway, you are welcome to make a donation and encourage the restart of this project.
Good luck!
