Capítulo 12. Autenticación e interoperatividad
Manual Backup and Restore Functionality
This update introduces the
ipa-backup
and ipa-restore
commands to Identity Management (IdM), which allow users to manually back up their IdM data and restore them in case of a hardware failure. For further information, see the ipa-backup(1) and ipa-restore(1) manual pages or the documentation in the Linux Domain Identity, Authentication, and Policy Guide.
Soporte para migración de WinSync a Trust
This update implements the new
ID Views
mechanism of user configuration. It enables the migration of Identity Management users from a WinSync synchronization-based architecture used by Active Directory
to an infrastructure based on Cross-Realm Trusts. For the details of ID Views
and the migration procedure, see the documentation in the Windows Integration Guide.
One-Time Password Authentication
One of the best ways to increase authentication security is to require two factor authentication (2FA). A very popular option is to use one-time passwords (OTP). This technique began in the proprietary space, but over time some open standards emerged (HOTP: RFC 4226, TOTP: RFC 6238). Identity Management in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1 contains the first implementation of the standard OTP mechanism. For further details, see the documentation in the System-Level Authentication Guide.
Integración SSSD para Sistema de archivos comunes de Internet
A plug-in interface provided by
SSSD
has been added to configure the way in which the cifs-utils utility conducts the ID-mapping process. As a result, an SSSD
client can now access a CIFS share with the same functionality as a client running the Winbind service. For further information, see the documentation in the Windows Integration Guide.
Certificar herramienta de administración de autoridad
The
ipa-cacert-manage renew
command has been added to the Identity management (IdM) client, which makes it possible to renew the IdM Certification Authority (CA) file. This enables users to smoothly install and set up IdM using a certificate signed by an external CA. For details on this feature, see the ipa-cacert-manage(1) manual page.
Aumentó granularidad de control de acceso
It is now possible to regulate read permissions of specific sections in the Identity Management (IdM) server UI. This allows IdM server administrators to limit the accessibility of privileged content only to chosen users. In addition, authenticated users of the IdM server no longer have read permissions to all of its contents by default. These changes improve the overall security of the IdM server data.
Acceso de dominio limitado para usuarios no privilegiados
The
domains=
option has been added to the pam_sss
module, which overrides the domains=
option in the /etc/sssd/sssd.conf
file. In addition, this update adds the pam_trusted_users
option, which allows the user to add a list of numerical UIDs or user names that are trusted by the SSSD
daemon, and the pam_public_domains
option and a list of domains accessible even for untrusted users. The mentioned additions allow the configuration of systems, where regular users are allowed to access the specified applications, but do not have login rights on the system itself. For additional information on this feature, see the documentation in the Linux Domain Identity, Authentication, and Policy Guide.
Configuración de proveedor de datos automático
El comando
ipa-client-install
ahora configura SSSD
como proveedor de datos para el servicio sudo. Esta conducta puede ser inhabilitada con la opción --no-sudo
. Además, la opción --nisdomain
ha sido agregada para especificar el nombre de dominio NIS para la instalación del cliente de administración de identidad, y la opción --no_nisdomain
ha sido agregada para establecer el nombre de dominioNIS. Si ninguna de estas opciones es utilizada, el dominio IPA se utiliza en su lugar.
Uso de proveedores sudo de AD y LDAP
El proveedor AD es un segundo plano utilizado para conectar a un servidor de directorio activo. En Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1, el uso del proveedor sudo AD junto con el proveedor LDAP recibe soporte como una Muestra previa de tecnología. Para habilitar el proveedor sudo AD, agregue el parámetro
sudo_provider=ad
en la sección de dominio del archivo sssd.conf
.
32-bit Version of krb5-server and krb5-server-ldap Deprecated
The 32-bit version of
Kerberos 5 Server
is no longer distributed, and the following packages are deprecated starting with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1: krb5-server.i686, krb5-server.s390, krb5-server.ppc, krb5-server-ldap.i686, krb5-server-ldap.s390, and krb5-server-ldap.ppc. There is no need to distribute the 32-bit version of krb5-server on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, which is supported only on the following architectures: AMD64 and Intel 64 systems (x86_64
), 64-bit IBM Power Systems servers (ppc64
), and IBM System z (s390x
).
