Pavel Březina 2017-05-04 11:41:53 UTC Doc Text Feature: Authconfig can enable smartcard authentication through SSSD.

Reason: SSSD is now capable of authenticating users via smartcards and it should be configurable by authconfig ad an alternative to pam_pkcs11 on systems where pam_pkcs11 is not installed.

Result: Authconfig can now configure SSSD, pam and gdm so that SSSD is used for smartcard authentication. E.g. "authconfig --enablesssd --enablesssdauth --enablesmartcard --smartcardmodule=sssd --smartcardaction=0 --updateall". If pam_pkcs11 is installed the --smartcardmodule=sssd is ignored and the first pkcs11_module defined in /etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf is used as a default.

"Authconfig" can enable *SSSD* to authenticate smartcards

Previously, it was necessary to install pam_pkcs11 in order to authenticate smartcards. With this new feature, the "authconfig" command can be used to configure the *SSSD* utility to authenticate smartcards, for example:

"authconfig" --enablesssd --enablesssdauth --enablesmartcard --smartcardmodule=sssd --smartcardaction=0 --updateall

However, if "pam_pkcs11" is installed, the "--smartcardmodule=sssd" option is ignored. Instead, the first pkcs11_module defined in `/etc/pam_pkcs11/pam_pkcs11.conf` filename is used as default.

As a result, smartcard authentication can be performed on systems where pam_pkics11 is not installed.
