Description Bryan Kearney 2016-10-28 12:29:04 UTC
From an email message about sssd and Satellite 6:


The only thing that I would change in the documentation is add a note to
section:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-satellite/6.2/single/server-administration-guide/#sect-Red_Hat_Satellite-Server_Administration_Guide-Using_LDAP
saying that we do not recommend to use direct LDAP integration covered
in this section but rather take advantage of SSSD and configure it
against IdM, AD or an LDAP server as covered in other sections of this
manual.

LDAP is the first in this list and LDAP is a known term so I am
concerned that people find it and do not look at other chapters
implementing not the best solution out of what is available.


We can also mention that SSSD can be configured against an LDAP server
instead of AD or IdM and point them to SSSD documentation on how to do
that.
