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.

Fixed In Version: ipa-2.2.0-3.el6
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Cause: When Kerberos single sign on to IPA Web UI fails, IPA Web UI does not have means to fall back to login+password authentication. Consequence: Workstations outside of IPA Kerberos realm or with in-compatible browsers cannot access the IPA Web UI unless a fallback from Kerberos authentication to login+password authentication is configured on the IPA web server. Change: IPA Web UI is now able to fall back to form based authentication when Kerberos authentication cannot be used. Result: Users outside of IPA Kerberos realm or with in-compatible browsers can now login with their login and passwords.

Description Brian Cook 2011-11-12 21:43:35 UTC 
When Kerberos single sign on fails, IPA should fall back to a landing page with a username + password login form that also has directions on it to install the single sign on plugin if the platform supports it

This would enable better cross-browser compatibility and access from workstations where the kereberos browser plug-in cannot be installed.

Comment 8 Namita Soman 2012-05-08 16:43:07 UTC 
verified using ipa-server-2.2.0-12.el6.x86_64

On a windows machine, used IE to access a ipa server. was able to login using form based auth, browsed through UI.
Also logged in as a non-admin user (whose password doesn't need to be reset) and got to page with user details.
