The FreeIPA team is proud to announce version 2.1.90 alpha 2. Alpha 1 
was an internal-only release. This will eventually become FreeIPA v2.2.0.

It can be downloaded from http://www.freeipa.org/Downloads or from our 
development repo (http://freeipa.org/downloads/freeipa-devel.repo). 
Fedora 15, 16 and 17 builds are available.

For Fedora 17 users the the required version of 389-ds-base has not been 
pushed to updates-testing yet. You can retrieve it manually from 
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=299543 or download 
the packages with:

  # koji download-build 299543

== Highlights in 2.1.90 alpha 2 ==

  * A new KDC LDAP backend, ipa-kdb. This simplifies our set up code and 
will is a big piece of future MS PAC support. It also removes the need 
for the separate ipa_kpasswd daemon, kadmind is used instead.
  * Support for storing SSH user and host public keys.
  * SELinux user map rules. These let you set the SELinux context for 
users in an HBAC rule.
  * Improved DNS UI and command-line with vastly improved argument handling.
  * UI screens for Automember were added.
  * Session support in the Web UI. This removes the need to do Kerberos 
negotiation with every request significantly improving Web UI performance.
  * Support for S4U2Proxy. This is a Kerberos feature which allows a 
delegated service (HTTP in our case) to request a ticket (ldap) on a 
user's behalf. We no longer require the TGT to be delegated to the 
server. A delegatable TGT is still required.
  * Improved command-line performance. It is approximately 50% faster.
  * MAC address has been added to hosts.

== Upgrading ==

We tested upgrades from 2.1.4 successfully but this is alpha code. We do 
not recommend upgrading a production server.

Installing updated rpms is all that is required to upgrade from 2.1.4.

It is unlikely that downgrading to a previous release once 2.1.90 is 
installed will work.

== Feedback ==

Please provide comments, bugs and other feedback via the freeipa-devel 
mailing list: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-devel
