Hello.
Is there support in freeipa for howdy ?
https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy
rpms are already available here:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/principis/howdy/
Would be nice if this would integrate with freeipa.
I wouldn't get your hopes up. Even the authors suggest that it isn't
particularly secure, which is the IPA raison d'ĂȘtre.
If someone submitted fully working code and the howdy packages were
available outside of copr, then maybe. As an optional method, disabled
by default.
I didn't dig into how howdy stores its authentication information but it
potentially brings with it privacy issues that we haven't had to deal
with before.
