[Bug 1646954] Re: Sync to Debian for -ldap, drop Ubuntu's -auth-client
Off the top of my head, I think the config file change is more problematic and
less desirable:
- we are following upstream here by using /etc/ldap.{conf,secret}
- if we go back to adopting debian's patch, that means more config files for
the user to change: /etc/libpam-ldap.{conf,secret} and
/etc/libnss-ldap.{conf,secret}. 4 in total, with duplicated information
- this complicates the upgrade path: two config files need to be split into 4
- honestly, I believe upstream is correct here
Do you have rewritten documentation or a guide that shows how to use
sssd? Out of the box it doesn't work, for example. It doesn't even have
a config file to start with. Ideally we should have a wizard for it, or
debconf questions, just like we have today for lib{nss,pam}-ldap.
Anyway, this bug is not the right forum to discuss it :) Could you start
a thread in the ubuntu-server@ mailing list perhaps?

[Bug 1646954] Re: Sync to Debian for -ldap, drop Ubuntu's -auth-client
We have two big diffs regarding debian:
- we use upstream's /etc/ldap.{conf,secret}; debian uses
/etc/pam_ldap{.conf,secret} for pam, and /etc/libnss-ldap.{conf,secret} for nss
- we use ldap-auth-config for configuration, whereas debian uses plain debconf
inside each package (pam and nss)
This bug is about the second item above, right? What are your thoughts
about the migration of debconf data from ldap-auth-config back into the
pam/nss packages?

I would subscribe ~ubuntu-archive to this and ask for some AA help if there is going to need to be done in a side PPA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to ldap-auth-client in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1646954 Title: Sync to Debian for -ldap, drop Ubuntu's -auth-client To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ldap-auth-client/+bug/1646954/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
