[Fedora-directory-users] Windows Syn - PassSync holds service password in clear text in registry
I asked our AD admins to install PassSync for testing and they refused as they claim that it holds the service password in the registry in clear text. Anybody know anything about this? PK -- Philip Kime NOPS Systems Architect 310 401 0407

Anybody know anything about this?Yes, the password for the replication bind DN configured in Fedora Directory Server must be stored in the registry on the domain controller. Why not just restrict access to the specific registry key that contains the password to the "Administrator" user? -NGK> > PK > > -- > Philip Kime > NOPS Systems Architect > 310 401 0407 > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > -- > Fedora-directory-users mailing list > Fedora-directory-users@redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users >
