Introduce a comma into a privilege name to assure we can handle commas. Commas must be escaped for some parameters, add escape_comma() utility and invoke it for the necessary parameters. Utilize a DN object to properly construct a DN and most importantly to allow equality testing beween the DN we expect and the one returned. This is necessary because a DN can be encoded according to different encoding syntaxes all of which are valid. DN objects always decode from their input. DN objects can test for equality between DN's without being affected by DN encoding. Add a equality callback for the dn in the expected dict. When the test framework tests for equality between the expected value and the returned value it will call back into a function we provide which will convert the returned dn into a DN object. An equality test is then performed between two DN objects. This is the only way to properly compare two dn's.
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.
