Release Notes: http://port389.org/wiki/Release_Notes Install Guide: http://port389.org/wiki/Install_Guide Download: http://port389.org/wiki/Download === Notes ==NOTE: If using the FC6 (EL5) packages, _you must update your yum repo files_ - the URLs have changed. See http://port389.org/wiki/Download for more information. NOTE: Fedora versions below 10 are no longer supported. If you are running Fedora 9 or earlier, you should upgrade. NOTE: This release is branded as ''''''389''''''. All of the RPMs have been marked as obsoleting their Fedora DS counterparts. When upgrading via yum, you must use yum ''''''upgrade'''''' (not update) so that the obsoletes will be processed. NOTE: If you are using the console, after installing the updates, you must run ''''''setup-ds-admin.pl -u'''''' to refresh your console and admin server configuration with the new version information. 1.2.4 fixes some bugs related to update - it will remove old Fedora servers from the console, and will preserve TLS/SSL configuration. See the buglist below. NOTE: ''''''389-console'''''' is the command to run the console. This replaces fedora-idm-console. === New features ==* Support for Salted MD5 (SMD5) passwords - primarily for migration - do not use SMD5 for new passwords - use SSHA256 and higher === Bugs Fixed ==This release contains a couple of bug fixes.
