An LDAP data source will enable FreeBSD clients= to more easily integrate with central user/account management frameworks like FreeIPA & sssd. As an illustration of problems that would be mitigated with the implementat= ion of an ldap data source consider that a centralized user accounting and management system, particularly FreeIPA, sudo queries the data source (sss) returning netgroups which sudo responds to by subsequently calling innetgr(= ). When called, innetgr() loads and iterates over /etc/netgroup looking for matching entries. As netgroup grows in size, so does the amount of time required to iterate it. For example, my tests using a ~1.5MB file consistin= g of ~31,000 entries took 30 seconds to return a password prompt as it traversed netgroup to insure the invoking user was permitted to. The following references describe FreeBSD deployment within a FreeIPA/sssd framework and illustrate that multiple users are deploying FreeBSD in such a configuration. https://blog.hostileadmin.com/2016/03/24/integrating-freebsd-w-freeipasssd/ https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/freebsd-freeipa-via-sssd.46526/ --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
