GOA is an aspect of the GNOME Desktop that supports linking online accounts to your user. When you log into Google, ownCloud or Nextcloud, and so on during initial setup, those are stored in GOA. GOA has the ability to store kerberos logins and initialize them as part of your login session, too. You cannot leverage GOA without the GNOME Desktop. KDE has its own system, but I am unsure if it has Kerberos support like GOA does. Pantheon Desktop has its own thing too, but that doesn't support Kerberos. > I want my FAS passkey stored in a keyring, encrypted with a master > passphrase, and I don't want to have to authenticate in advance with a > separate command.

I live with the constant kinit runs because GNOME is too much for me to bear. I consider it an acceptable trade-off really. The only reason GOA has Kerberos support is because of all the enterprise desktop stuff. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
