<br />
== Summary ==<br />
<!-- A sentence or two summarizing what this feature is and what it will do. This information is used for the overall feature summary page for each release. --><br />
Likewise Open joins Linux machines to Microsoft Active Directory and securely authenticates users with their domain credentials.<br />
<br />
== Owner ==<br />

* Name: [[User:ssalley| Scott Salley]]<br />
<br />
<!-- Include you email address that you can be reached should people want to contact you about helping with your feature, status is requested, or technical issues need to be resolved--><br />
* Email: ssalley@likewise.com<br />
<br />
== Current status ==<br />
* Targeted release: [[Releases/{{FedoraVersion||next}} | {{FedoraVersion|long|next}} ]] <br />
* Last updated: March 1, 2010<br />
* Percentage of completion: 90%<br />
<br />
<!-- CHANGE THE "FedoraVersion" TEMPLATES ABOVE TO PLAIN NUMBERS WHEN YOU COMPLETE YOUR PAGE. --><br />
<br />
== Detailed Description ==<br />
<!-- Expand on the summary, if appropriate. A couple sentences suffices to explain the goal, but the more details you can provide the better. --><br />
After joining to Active Directory, users will be able to log in with their domain credentials.<br />
<br />
== Benefit to Fedora ==<br />
<!-- What is the benefit to the platform? If this is a major capability update, what has changed? If this is a new feature, what capabilities does it bring? Why will Fedora become a better distribution or project because of this feature?--><br />
The addition of Likewise Open will allow Fedora into environments where computers and users must be managed by Active Directory, namely large corporations dominated by MS Windows.<br />
<br />
== Scope ==<br />
<!-- What work do the developers have to accomplish to complete the feature in time for release? Is it a large change affecting many parts of the distribution or is it a very isolated change? What are those changes?--><br />
# Get changes into SELinux<br />
# OpenLDAP version is appropriate<br />
# Kerberos version is appropriate<br />
<br />
== How To Test ==<br />
A misconfigured authentication system can prevent all logins! Initial testing should be done with a system you don't care about or through a VM.<br />
<br />
# Join you machine to Active Directory through either the command line or GUI interface.<br />
## domainjoin-cli join DOMAIN.COM DOMAIN\\username <enter domain password at prompt.><br />
## domainjoin-gui<br />
# Attempt logging in as a domain user.<br />
## ssh by DOMAIN\\username@localhost<br />
<br />
The number of 'whacks' between DOMAIN and username varies depending on if the 'whack' is an escape character.<br />
<br />
All programs should behave normally once you are logged in.<br />
<br />
== User Experience ==<br />
Login screens and prompts will appear the same as usual but Active Directory credentials will accepted.<br />
<br />
== Dependencies ==<br />
No other packages are dependent on Likewise Open.<br />
<br />
Likewise Open is dependent on<br />
* OpenLdap<br />
* Kerberos<br />
* SELinux<br />
<br />
<!-- What other packages (RPMs) depend on this package? Are there changes outside the developers' control on which completion of this feature depends? In other words, completion of another feature owned by someone else and might cause you to not be able to finish on time or that you would need to coordinate? Other upstream projects like the kernel (if this is not a kernel feature)? --><br />
<br />
== Contingency Plan ==<br />
Likewise Open is not a necessary part of the distribution and nothing (but my ego) will be harmed if it is not included.<br />
<br />
== Documentation ==<br />
* Likewise Open <http://www.likewise.com/resources/documentation_library/><br />
<br />
== Release Notes ==<br />
* Likewise Open provides a means to authenticate with Microsoft's Active Directory.<br />
<br />
<!-- The Fedora Release Notes inform end-users about what is new in the release. Examples of past release notes are here: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ --><br />
<!-- The release notes also help users know how to deal with platform changes such as ABIs/APIs, configuration or data file formats, or upgrade concerns. If there are any such changes involved in this feature, indicate them here. You can also link to upstream documentation if it satisfies this need. This information forms the basis of the release notes edited by the documentation team and shipped with the release. --><br />
