Hi,

I am currently testing Ovirt 3.1 standalone on Fedora 17.

Until now, I could only use the default user admin@internal.

Our Directory at the University is OpenLDAP. We use it for authentication
WITHOUT Kerberos : Simple authentication.

I wonder how to use this backend to authenticate users and manage groups
in Ovirt.

Has anyone already set this up ?
How to configure Ovirt to use Simple Authentication (No Kerberos).

Cheers,

Hi,

This is a response from an older thread from Yair Zaslavsky:

" there is no code allowing to add simple-authentication domains to
Manage-Domains.
In the past we did have the ability to do that, but there are several
problematic issues."

Best regards,
Hi,

correct-me if I am wrong but this wiki page (http://www.ovirt.org/DomainInfrastructure) states clearly :

  1. Authenticating Active Directory, IPA and RHDS using either simple or gssapi authentication
  2. Querying the directory using the LDAP protocol
  3. Auto deducing the LDAP provider type
  4. Easily adding new LDAP provider types
  5. Easily adding new query types

So what ?
