[Freeipa-interest] [SSSD] Announcing SSSD 1.9.1

[Jakub Hrozek]

                      === SSSD 1.9.1 ===

The SSSD team is proud to announce the release of version 1.9.1 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 shortly, initially for F-18
and rawhide and later also backported to F-17.

== 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 ==

 * The distribution tarball was fixed to include a missing file, which
   prevented "make rpms" from running correctly.
 * Handle gracefully the situation where the namingContext is zero-length,
   such as when connected to the Novell eDirectory server.
 * A new option default_domain_suffix was added. This option is mainly
   useful for environments whose users come from a trusted domain so that
   the user doesn't have to specify that trusted domain with every user lookup.
 * Many man page fixes that were held from the 1.9.0 release during the
   string freeze
 * The entries in the generated known_hosts file are now expired preventing
   the file from growing indefinitely
 * The PID file is now created after all the SSSD services start up to
   avoid notifying the user via the init system before SSSD is able to
   handle requests.
