Hi. I asked about Owncloud, Zimbra, etc autentification in freeipa with AD trust. I was offered to use SAML. But I dont undestand SAML. It very dificult for me. I only want use LDAP for autentification as in this artikle https://www.freeipa.org/page/Owncloud_Authentication_against_FreeIPA Or this https://www.freeipa.org/page/Zimbra_Collaboration_Server_7.2_Authentication_...
Articles work fine but only for freeipa users. It dont work for AD users from trusted domain.
I found Red Hat documentation for sinchronising AD with IPA https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/htm...
If i do it i can see AD user in ldap requests for ipa server?
If you do winsync instead of AD trust then yes, the AD entries will reside in the IPA LDAP server.
For passwords to work you'll need to install the passsync service on every AD DC and any AD user that you want to authenticate will need to reset their password for it work work when authenticating against IPA.
I agree that SAML can be confusing and difficult but IMHO it is a far, far better path than co-mingling your AD and IPA entries using winsync. winsync is not recommended.
