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 Tomas Mraz 2012-02-10 17:59:48 UTC 
For implementation of IPA client configuration in authconfig we need an option (--noac for example) that will prevent ipa-client-install from calling authconfig. Authconfig will modify the nsswitch.conf and PAM configuration on its own after ipa-client-install returns.

Comment 2 Rob Crittenden 2012-03-05 15:27:47 UTC 
fixed upstream.

master: 111ca8a4823171cc29ca582ca8fb8c0c5330374c

ipa-2-2: 924a6bd57afe6af61118cd6902a327e3908131d8

man page addition:

master: 356823d270a33b65ef4a34133f5d65100b5f59e4

ipa-2-2: d18ea5f52246ca1a7e071fb1dde04ef13d85fa71

For testing if you use the --noac option then /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/pam.d won't be modified. So things like 'id admin', getent passwd won't contain IPA users, logins fail, etc.
