Hi all, I've run into some configuration trouble with our Red Hat
Directory server V 8.0 and was hoping someone on this list might be able to shed a little
light on my darkened, troubled and confused brow!
We've got the directory running pretty and have enabled gssapi to allow
us to bind with our Kerberos Tickets, so if I do an LDAP query and bind with gssapi with
a valid TGT all is well! (hurray) However thats really only PART of what we hope to do
with Kerberos and Red Hat Directory Server... we'd also like to be able to use
Kerberos as the password database for LDAP... so that a non kerberos aware application
which just wants to bind to ldap will be able to bind to the directory, unaware that
Kerberos is actually being used as the password store and means of auth..
I found a pretty good HOWTO for how to do this with open ldap:
http://www.ba.infn.it/~domenico/docs/AAIFiles/openLDAP.html
Way down at the bottom where it says "Kerberos as back-end database for LDAP
password" is exactly what I'd like to accomplish! Is there a means to do the
same thing in FDS? I also found this documentations:
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:PAM_Pass_Through
Which seems like it could work, but seems kind of like a hack for what i'm trying to
do and it seemed like I couldn't be the only one who wanted to do it! I suspect
there's something I'm just missing!
That hack was invented for those who wanted to use Kerberos as the
authoritative source for password information. pampassthru passes the
password to Kerberos via pam.
If you're really interested in using Fedora DS as the authoritative
source for password information, and have Kerberos use Fedora DS to
store the passwords, you really need
Thanks for the time, and any help would be much appreciated!
