RHEL 6.X allows any user log in, it does not enforce host based access.
Issue
- We are using OpenLdap for authentication in our environment.
- We use the host attribute to specifically allow users access to systems. The server will allow anyone to login, even when the host is not part of the users ldap profile.
- The people that are able to login to a rhel6 without the host in their profile, all have ldap uid's that are under 500. could this have anything to do with it?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
