Topic

Updated authconfig packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The authconfig packages provide a command line utility and a GUI application
that can configure a workstation to be a client for certain network user
information and authentication schemes, and other user information and
authentication related options.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, the authconfig utility used old syntax for configuring

the idmap mapping in the smb.conf file when started with the "--smbidmapuid" and
"--smbidmapgid" command line options. Consequently, Samba 3.6 ignored the
configuration. This update adapts authconfig to use the new syntax of the idmap
range configuration so that Samba 3.6 can read it. (BZ#862195)

  • Prior to this update, the authconfig utility could write an incomplete

sssd.conf file when using the options "--enablesssd" or "--enablesssdauth". As a
consequence, the sssd daemon did not start. With this update, authconfig no
longer tries to create the sssd.conf file without complete information, and the
sssd daemon can now start as expected. (BZ#874527)

All users of authconfig are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at

Fixes

  • BZ - 874527 - sssd.conf generated from scratch is invalid
