We've talked about it here and on IRC some. There is extra limited
support for authorization in there now, but there are a few patches
in the works that will make this easier, and I want to do some
overhauling before I make that the permanent.
Currently I'm in the process of cleaning up the authentication
system. The current authz system may then be taken out back and
shot, and sometime after then we can look at doing user ownership of
objects (like profiles and/or systems) properly.
thanks - without wanting to pin anyone down do we have any timescales
for this type of thing? I dont want to advise on a feature that may
not be delivered for a year ;)
The kerberos stuff should be taken care of in a few months, and with
that, it shouldn't be much of a step to have certain users own objects.
So, not long. (Yes, we will support more than just kerberos)
Basically at this point in Cobbler's life I'm trying to address the
major features and leaving most of the minor RFE's up to everyone else
to send in patches for, and auth and those use cases is definitely one
of the important items.
