Likewise Software Announces Webinar on Integrating Macs into Corporate Networks

"Making Macs First-Class Citizens in a Mixed Network Environment" Scheduled November 17.

Bellevue, WA (PRWEB) November 13, 2008 -- Anyone considering using Mac computers in a corporate environment needs to know how those computers can be integrated into a network with Windows, Unix and Linux systems. On Monday, November 17, 2008, at 1 pm Eastern time (10 am Pacific), Likewise Software (www.likewisesoftware.com) will present a free webinar that addresses the issue of integrating Mac computers in diverse networks.

The session will cover options for deploying Macs securely and authenticating them through Microsoft Active Directory, which can help to meet corporate security, government and industry regulatory compliance, and TCO (total cost-of-ownership) concerns. This enables the Macs to be managed in a common way with Active Directory, thus making them first-class citizens alongside computers using Windows.

To register, go to www.likewisesoftware.com/register/?type=event&name=1108implement_access_controls. A live Q & A is included as part of the program.

The session will be led by Yvo Van Doorn, a deployment engineer at Likewise Software who specializes in enterprise software deployments on Mac OS X platforms.
