Apologies if this is a stupid question, but is there any way inside the SSSD to get source IP/fqdn without using rhost set by client? That would help to avoid any spoofing possibility I guess. On the other hand to even spoof a remote host attacker needs to know which host/IP is allowed to access and also which form is entered into LDAP. > I would rather reuse existing HBAC infrastructure for rule evaluation. >> > HBAC rule evaluation is separate from its representation in LDAP (or > anywhere else).
