Rich Megginson 0988e1c53c Do not depend on MMR plugin - start before MMR plugin
The ipa-winsync plugin needs to start before the MMR plugin, so that it
can register the API functions.  Also, the slapi-nis schema compat
plugin creates an entry that looks exactly like the default IPA group
gidNumber entry, so I added an extra (objectclass=groupOfNames) to the
filter since the slapi-nis entry doesn't have that.

IPA uses Kerberos with an LDAP storage backend and some custom plugins
to help manage users and passwords.

A UI interface is provided to make user administration and self-service
possible. A set of command-line utilities that should provide the same
capabilities is in ipa-admintools.

The Gecko engine provides an interface for managing a user's configuration
in Javascript. Naturally this is highly protected and the user gets an
appropriately dire warning when you try to do this. It also requires 
signed javascript.

During installation a signing certificate is created that creates
and signs /usr/share/ipa/html/configure.jar which contains the javascript
to update the browser configuration. User's are directed to go to
/errors/preferencs.html to load this javascript and apply the changes.
