Realm administrator account may be specified using different form: Administrator, DOM\Administrator, Administrator@DOMAIN This patch introduces handling of the second two forms: - In DOM\Administrator only user name is used, short domain name is then taken from a discovered record from the AD DC - In Administrator@DOMAIN first DOMAIN is verified to be the same as the domain we are establishing trust to, and then user name is taken, together with short domain name taken from a discovered record from the AD DC Note that we do not support using to-be-trusted domain's trusted domains' accounts to establish trust as there is basically zero chance to verify that things will work with them. In addition, in order to establish trust one needs to belong to Enterprise Admins group in AD or have specially delegated permissions. These permissions are unlikely delegated to the ones in already trusted domain. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2864
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.
