rpc.idmapd plugin for ssd

[Noam Meltzer]

Hello,

I was thinking of writing a client for sssd which will server as rpc.idmapd
plugin. (NFSv4 ID <-> Name Mapper)

Before doing so, I just wanted to make sure that no one here is aware of an
existing plugin?

Best regards,
Noam Meltzer

We haven't started on that yet and a contribution in this sense would be
*awesome*!.

Let me know when you have something ready and I will review and test it
in my kerberized nfs setup.

Simo.

Sernet Samba 4 packages

Hi, it was reported on the Samba list that if you are running Ubuntu 
12.04 and install the Sernet samba4 packages, then install sssd from the 
ppa that the sernet-samba package is removed. Upon investigation, it 
turns out that the Sernet package conflicts with libndr-standard0 and 
libndr0. This is now being reported to Sernet as their problem and this 
is just to let you know, in case anybody else has faced this.

I bet the sernet packaging is based on the current unified samba package
on Debian, which doesn't ship a separate libndr.
