RHBA-2014:1383 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated ipa packages that fix multiple bugs and add two enhancements are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Red Hat Identity Management is a centralized authentication, identity
management, and authorization solution for both traditional and cloud-based
enterprise environments. It integrates components of the Red Hat Directory
Server, MIT Kerberos, Red Hat Certificate System, NTP, and DNS. It provides web
browser and command-line interfaces. Its administration tools allow an
administrator to quickly install, set up, and administer a group of domain
controllers to meet the authentication and identity management requirements of
large-scale Linux and UNIX deployments.

These updated ipa packages include numerous bug fixes and enhancements. Space
precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed
to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 Technical Notes for information on the most
significant of these changes:

Users of ipa are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these
bugs and add these enhancements.
