Description Leonid Zhaldybin 2011-10-27 09:40:41 UTC
Description of problem:

According to the document "Messaging Installation Guide" chapter 7 "Authentication and Authorization" version 2.0, there should be a 'guest' account created after the Messaging installation:

"To use the default SASL PLAIN authentication mechanism implemented by the MRG Messaging client libraries, either use the default username and password of guest, which are included in the database at /var/lib/qpidd/qpidd.sasldb on installation, or add your own accounts."

Stable packages for RHEL5.7 do contain the SASL database with the guest account, but this is not the case for Messaging on RHEL6.1. There is no package containing database /var/lib/qpidd/qpidd.sasdb on RHEL6.1, thus there is no guest account after installing Messaging on this RHEL version. An update needed to describe this difference.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.0

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Read Messaging Installation Guide v.2.0, PDF page 27.
  
Actual results:
Invalid statement that 'guest' account always presents in database after installation.

Expected results:
The difference between RHEL5.7 and RHEL6.1 concerning 'guest' account described properly.

Committed revision 76526.

"To use the default SASL PLAIN authentication mechanism implemented by the &RHM; client libraries on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7 clients, either use the default username and password of <parameter>guest</parameter>, which are included in the database at <filename>/var/lib/qpidd/qpidd.sasldb</filename> on installation, or add your own accounts. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and newer clients do not include a guest account, so new accounts must be added. "
