Change owner(s): Stephen Gallagher <sgallagh(a)redhat.com>
With Fedora 21, the rolekit project now provides a public D-BUS interface for
creating a Domain Controller based on the FreeIPA project. This Change will
track adding this capability to the Cockpit management console of Fedora
Server.
== Detailed Description ==
Providing users with a simple graphical user interface to set up a FreeIPA
Domain Controller will provide a fast way to bootstrap an enterprise-grade
Linux environment. Once the Domain Controller is made available, it becomes
easy to manage single-sign-on between systems (and Cockpit instances), control
user authentication and authorization centrally and manage DNS entries (among
other things).
== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: The Cockpit user experience needs to be written and added
to that upstream project. It needs to be connected to the local rolekit
daemon.
* Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change)
