Re: [CentOS-docs] New HOWTO Proposal: How to Configure Centralized Authentication on CentOS 6.0

[Adrian Hall <photoadrian@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm totally with you on the SSL/TLS.  I've been swearing at that particular element for over two weeks now.  Since there is no slapd.conf any more, the method of introducing a certificate is not logical, nor documented.

I haven't looked into sssd.  Since it isn't installed by default on CentOS, why would that be a requirement?  (not saying it isn't a good thing, but I'd probably defer that to another document as with the other elements you suggested)

Things I'd recommend adding to the discussion before official
publication of the page:

* sssd and ldap
* SSL/TLS

Of slightly less immediate importance, but worthy of inclusion further
down the road:

* master-slave ldap setup and failover on the clients
* ldap and samba for windows auth
* pointers to using ldap auth for, e.g., apache, jabber, sendmail, ...
* central user accounts and NFSv4
