I'm pleased to announce release 2.3 of krb5-sync.
krb5-sync is a toolkit for synchronizing passwords and account status from
an MIT or Heimdal Kerberos master KDC to Active Directory. Password
changes are done via the Kerberos password change protocol, and account
status is updated via LDAP. It provides a plugin for the kadmin libraries
and supporting command-line utilities, as well as a patch for Heimdal and
older versions of MIT Kerberos to add plugin support.
Changes from previous release:
When handling password changes from MIT Kerberos, quietly ignore
changes where the password is NULL. These are key randomizations,
such as from addprinc -randkey, which this module inherently can't do
anything with.
The plugin is now installed in a kadm5_hook subdirectory under
krb5/plugins (under libdir in turn), matching the plugin layout used
by MIT Kerberos.
When krb5-sync-backend is running in silent mode, ignore "Operation
not permitted" errors from krb5_set_password. Heimdal 1.5.2 returns
this error from Active Directory when attempting to change the
password of an account that does not exist.
Properly pass Kerberos preprocessor flags to the compiler when
building the plugin.
Update to rra-c-util 4.6:
* Pass --deps to krb5-config except with --enable-reduced-depends.
* Do not assume string is nul-terminated in replacement strdup.
* Avoid using local in the shell TAP library for Solaris portability.
* Silence __attribute__ warnings on more compilers.
Update to C TAP Harness 1.12:
* Suppress plan and summary if bail is called before any tests run.
* Only use feature-test macros when requested or built with gcc -ansi.
* Drop is_double from the C TAP library to avoid requiring -lm.
* Avoid using local in the shell libtap.sh library.
* Silence __attribute__ warnings on more compilers.
