Integrating FreeIPA and Alfresco...

After describing how to install CentOS, DNS and reverse DNS, FreeIPA and Alfresco, in this post I'm going to describe how to integrate Alfresco with FreeIPA. I want to achieve the following goals with the integration:
  • Users and groups are kept within FreeIPA and authentication is done by FreeIPA.
  • Alfresco Web interface honors Kerberos tickets. Upon opening Web interface users are immediately presented with their pages withoug necessity for authentication (if, of course, they have valid Kerberos tickets).
  • Authentication when mounting DAV share is also done via Kerberos tickets.
In short, I want to achieve SSO (Single Sign-On) as much as possible. Users sign in when they start to use their workstations once, that's the only time they have to enter password.
