Description Marc Nozell 2017-06-29 14:26:31 UTC
1. Proposed title of this feature request

RFE: Use SRV Records (for AD/IPA) to determine best server for AD 

3. What is the nature and description of the request?

Want to be able to have multiple LDAP servers

4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

To support multiple LDAP servers.

If KRB5 is supported, this RFE is no longer required since it supports
SRV records to use multiple LDAP servers.

5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)

6. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.

7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?

No

10. List any affected packages or components.

krb5 and multiple LDAP server support can both be accomplished by using a request header authentication provider.

The external LDAP authentication setup is described in
