Ravi, switch user functionality is not related to authentication performed by Apache (Kerberos, SAML, CAS, ...), right? Switch user works only for username/password authentication within oVirt SSO, right?

Comment 4 Ravi Nori 2018-04-05 09:34:09 EDT

Posted a patch to fix the issue, the user should be able to switch user even with a valid Kerberos ticket.

Can you please add the gerrit reference to this bug?
Looks like automation@ovirt.org failed to do so.
Also, please open a ticket on oVirt infra about this, so they can fix it.

Comment 7 Petr Matyáš 2018-04-16 04:03:20 EDT

Verified on ovirt-engine-4.2.3-0.1.el7.noarch

I can now switch user on welcome page when I have an active SSO token and also I can switch back to SSO login with Next-Auth button on switch user page.
