This creates a new role, replicaadmin, so a non-DM user can do limited management of replication agreements. Note that with cn=config if an unauthorized user performs a search an error is not returned, no entries are returned. This makes it difficult to determine if there are simply no replication agreements or we aren't allowed to see them. Once the ipaldap.py module gets replaced by ldap2 we can use Get Effective Rights to easily tell the difference.
IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
