Topic

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

Description

The authconfig packages contain 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 bugs:

  • Prior to this update, it was not possible to specify multiple Lightweight

Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers with the authconfig command. This bug
has been fixed, and multiple LDAP servers can now be specified as expected.
(BZ#1145137)

  • Previously, the authconfig utility did not pass passwords provided by the

"--winbindjoin" option when calling "net join". Consequently, the user was asked
for a password. Now, passwords are passed by authconfig to "net join"
automatically, and users do not have to provide them in this situation.
(BZ#1194397)

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.
