Setting up HBAC for Apache with IdM

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • I am attempting to setup a HBAC rule in IdM to control access to an Apache virtual host.
  • I have already tested out mod_auth_kerb using basic auth. However, I need a mechanism to restrict access.
  • I did not find any reference in the official Red Hat IdM documentation and searching the knowledgebase was not successful. I found the following link which discusses the topic. http://www.freeipa.org/page/Web_App_Authentication
  • I have looked for mod_authnz_pam and cannot find it in the repos. Do you have any information on this module and whether it is supported? If not, do you have any method where an HBAC rule may be applied for an httpd server?

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
