RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Martin Kosek 2015-03-11 15:04:19 UTC

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4190

mod_auth_gssapi is a new module I am working on to make Negotiate authentication more streamlined.

The main feature for FreeIPA is that it will allow the use of GSS-Proxy for all functionality as it does not use direct libkrb5 calls unlike mod_auth_kerb

It is a precondition for implementing #4189

Comment 6 Brian J. Murrell 2015-08-21 11:24:08 UTC

When is this likely to hit RHEL 7?  This will close bug 1255703, but if this hitting RHEL 7 is still a long way out, I'd like to see bug 1255703 fixed in the meanwhile.
