I just wanted to start a discussion to see if there are any priorities for the tasks to
work on for the Beta2 release of the JBoss Negotiation library.
I have just added a new LDAP login module based on the existing LdapExtLogin module to add
support to use GSSAPI for 'java.naming.security.authentication' and better support
for running the searches without actually performing the authentication.
I will be documenting this new module later today and will be ready to pick up the next
tasks, currently I have the following issues to choose from: -
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode...
I have been considering adding support for Microsoft PAC
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/SECURITY-155 to obtain the roles from the messages
exchanged however this would still require some mechanism to obtain the actual roles from
Active Directory as the message just contains an identifier.
Alternatively the following tasks may be more appropriate to use an authentication cache
which is aware of the expiration of the exchanged tickets and possibly even a distributed
cache to remove the need for re-authentication on failover.
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/SECURITY-137
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/SECURITY-127
For the Beta2 release I think it may also be a priority to get FreeIPA documented as an
alternative to Active Directory.
