= Proposed Self Contained Change: Samba AD = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Samba_AD Change owner(s): * Alexander Bokovoy <abokovoy AT redhat DOT com> * Andreas Schneider <asn AT redhat DOT com> Samba AD is an open source implementation of an Active Directory set of tools and protocols. It allows Windows clients to be enrolled and managed using native Windows tools. In addition, Samba AD can serve as a domain controller for Fedora workstations and servers utilizing DCERPC, LDAP and Kerberos. == Detailed Description == Samba AD is an implementation of an Active Directory set of tools and protocols. It is developed and released as part of Samba suite. Upcoming Samba 4.7 release will contain changes to allow Samba AD to be built and used with MIT Kerberos. Prior to Samba 4.7 it was impossible to compile Samba AD with MIT Kerberos. As result, Samba AD was not packaged in Fedora. == Scope == * Proposal owners: Samba packages in Fedora already include a stub subpackage samba-dc that is going to be replaced with a full Samba AD implementation. Appropriate dependencies are already present in Fedora 27/Rawhide or will be added together with Samba 4.7 update. This mostly concerns upgrade of Samba-related libraries: libtevent, libldb, libtdb, and MIT Kerberos update to support new APIs added to accommodate Samba AD (already in Rawhide). * Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Release engineering: - https://pagure.io/releng/issue/6869 - We believe no impact to Release Engineering is needed for this change * List of deliverables: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
