Open Filer? I haven't used it but it's based on CentOS: www.openfiler.com
Unfortunately, it doesn't provide the authentication/authorization aspect that he needs. He'd need a 2nd server for that.
This looks like an interesting project. The problem with it is that it is a whole distro, so I can't have auth on the same server?
nothing stopping you from actually ssh'ing in and setting up openldap if you like.. on the same box. But the gui frontend for openfiler, at this stage, will not help you with the process.
It would be a great addition to that project though. Or to the Centos-based SMEserver if you add NFS too. Then you could build one box where you add users and get home directories and use any number of other Linux or windows workstations where anyone could log in with network authentication and have his home directory auto-mounted.
NFS support has been in OpenFiler as long as I can remember.
As is ftp, webdav and smb.
