New subject: [SSSD] Announcing SSSD 1.12.4

18 Feb 2015


      === SSSD 1.12.4 ===
The SSSD team is proud to announce the release of version 1.12.4 of
the System Security Services Daemon.
As always, the source is available from https://fedorahosted.org/sssd
RPM packages will be made available for Fedora 21, 22 and rawhide shortly.
== Feedback ==
Please provide comments, bugs and other feedback via the sssd-devel
or sssd-users mailing lists:
    https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
    https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-users
== Highlights ==
* This is mostly a bug fixing release with only minor enhancements visible
   to the end user
 * Contains many fixes and enhancements related to the ID views functionality
   of FreeIPA servers
 * Several fixes related to retrieving AD group membership in an IPA-AD
   trust scenario
 * Fixes a bug where the GPO access control previously didn't work at all
   if debugging was enabled in smb.conf.
 * SSSD can now be pinned to a particular AD site instead of autodiscovering
   the site
 * A regression that caused setting the SELinux context for IPA users to
   fail, was fixed
 * Fixed a potential crash caused by a double-free error when an SSSD
   service was killed by the monitor process
== Packaging Changes ==
* Several patches that allow building the Python code in SSSD with python3
   were merged
== Documentation Changes ==
* A new option ad_site was added. When this option is set, SSSD will
   attempt to connect to DCs from this particular AD site instead of looking
   up the site via DNS
 * The ad_gpo_map_permit option now also includes the systemd-user service
   to avoid errors in processing of the PAM session stack
