=== SSSD 1.10 Beta 2 ===
The SSSD team is proud to announce the second beta release of version 1.10
of the System Security Services Daemon.
This beta release includes the rest of the new features planned for 1.10. The
features are mostly targeted at better integration with Microsoft Active
Directory.
As always, the source is available from https://fedorahosted.org/sssd.
RPM packages will be made available for Fedora 19 and rawhide shortly.
With this release, the 1.10 version is considered feature complete and
the strings are frozen. We will release the final 1.10.0 version once we
fix all the known crashes and regressions. The 1.10.0 release is
tentatively scheduled for the end of this week. Because the short period
between this beta and the final release would not allow the translators
to provide updated translations, the strings will remain frozen even for
the 1.10.1 release.
== Feedback ==
Please provide comments, bugs and other feedback via the sssd-devel
or sssd-users mailing lists:
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-users
== Highlights ==
* The Active Directory provider now includes support for retrieving
identity information and authentication as users from trusted domains
in the same forest. The SSSD looks up the information using the Global
Catalog. Currently this feature is only supported when the SSSD is
connected to the forest root.
* The group memberships for Active Directory users are read from the PAC
during login. If the PAC is not available (such as when group membership
is requested for a user who has never logged in), the SSSD falls back to
using tokenGroups.
* The Active Directory provider is able to autodiscover the NetBIOS
(flat) name of the domain it connects to. The NetBIOS name is discovered
automatically on startup.
* The full_name_format option now accepts a new parameter that expands
to the NetBIOS name of the domain
* The new krb5_use_kdcinfo option allows the administrator to disable the
Kerberos locator plugin and rely on information read from the krb5.conf
file completely.
* A new option ldap_disable_range_retrieval was added. Switching this
option to True skips large Active Directory groups that might otherwise
take a long time to download and process.
* A new option refresh_expired_interval was added. This option allows to
configure a background task that would automatically refresh entries that
are nearing their expiration time. In this release, only refreshing
netgroups is implemented.
== Packaging Changes ==
* The Makefile has been amended so that it no longer uses overlinking
which is disabled by default on some distributions (such as Debian and
its derivatives)
* The upstream RPM specfile now packages each provider separately. The SSSD
deamon and the responders are now included in the sssd-common package,
while the sssd package has become a "meta package" that Requires all the
existing providers for backwards compatibility.
* The libsss_sudo and libsss_autofs libraries are now part of the
sssd-common package
