# MEETING NOTICE

Central Ohio Linux User Group
Date: Wednesday, November 12 2015, 7 - 9 PM EDT

## Presentation

Learn how Red Hat Enterprise Linux Identity Management and it's
upstream project, FreeIPA, can secure your *nix environment with an
open source, centralized and standards based solution built on top of
well known Open Source components and standard protocols.  This
integrated security information management solution combines Linux,
389 Directory Server, MIT Kerberos, NTP, DNS, Dogtag certificate
system and SSSD to provide easy management and automation of
installation and configuration tasks.

There will be a demonstration of full multi-master replication for
higher redundancy and scalability, configuring host-based access
control, centrally-managed users, groups, and sudoers using the web
GUI and CLI.  Additionally, we will explore two-factor authentication
in Red Hat Enterprise identity management using Soft Tokens generated
by FreeOTP.
