RHBA-2013:1680 - sssd bug fix and enhancement update

Synopsis

sssd bug fix and enhancement update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated sssd packages that fix a number of bugs and add two enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) provides a set of daemons to manage access to remote directories and authentication mechanisms. It provides the Name Service Switch (NSS) and the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) interfaces toward the system and a pluggable back-end system to connect to multiple different account sources.

These updated sssd packages include numerous bug fixes and enhancements. Space precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 Technical Notes for information on the most significant of these changes:

Users of sssd are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add these enhancements.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258
