Description Tim Orling 2017-02-09 16:13:02 UTC
Moved from BZ 10558, since the work to be done is now a different focus.

Syntax schmintax. Moved from Bug 10558
Comment 2 Tim Orling 2017-02-09 16:28:42 UTC

Appears to only be available for the Pro version. We do _not_ want to downgrade to version 2 Pro. The current need does not justify paying for a version 3 Pro seat.

The REMOTE_USER token option is available:

The other option could be LDAP authentication:

The Fedora Project has moved to using Kerberos tickets for authentication, but whether that is doable here is beyond my technical knowledge.

This would be a nice addition but we lack the resources to keep this up right now. closing....
