This is a Web UI wide change. Fields and Widgets binding was refactored to enable proper two-way binding between them. This should allow to have one source of truth (field) for multiple consumers - widgets or something else. One of the goal is to have fields and widget implementations independent on each other. So that one could use a widget without field or use one field for multiple widgets, etc.. Basically a fields logic was split into separate components: - adapters - parsers & formatters - binder Adapters - extract data from data source (FreeIPA RPC command result) - prepares them for commands. Parsers - parse extracted data to format expected by field - parse widget value to format expected by field Formatters - format field value to format suitable for widgets - format field value to format suitable for adapter Binder - is a communication bridge between field and widget - listens to field's and widget's events and call appropriate methods Some side benefits: - better validation reporting in multivalued widget Reviewed-By: Adam Misnyovszki <amisnyov@redhat.com>
IPA Server
Overview
--------
FreeIPA allows Linux administrators to centrally manage identity,
authentication and access control aspects of Linux and UNIX systems
by providing simple to install and use command line and web based
managment tools.
FreeIPA is built on top of well known Open Source components and standard
protocols with a very strong focus on ease of management and automation
of installation and configuration tasks.
FreeIPA can seamlessly integrate into an Active Directory environment via
cross-realm Kerberos trust or user synchronization.
Benefits
--------
FreeIPA:
* Allows all your users to access all the machines with the same credentials
and security settings
* Allows users to access personal files transparently from any machine in
an authenticated and secure way
* Uses an advanced grouping mechanism to restrict network access to services
and files only to specific users
* Allows central management of security mechanisms like passwords,
SSH Public Keys, SUDO rules, Keytabs, Access Control Rules
* Enables delegation of selected administrative tasks to other power users
* Integrates into Active Directory environments
Components
----------
The FreeIPA project provides unified installation and management
tools for the following components:
* LDAP Server - based on the 389 project (LDAP)
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Main_Page
* KDC - based on MIT Kerberos implementation
http://k5wiki.kerberos.org/wiki/Main_Page
* PKI based on Dogtag project
http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/PKI_Main_Page
* Samba libraries for Active Directory integration
http://www.samba.org/
* DNS Server based on BIND and the Bind-DynDB-LDAP plugin
