Alan Conway reassigned DISPATCH-958:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Ben Hardesty
> Lacking documentation on authorization, authentication and SSL.
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DISPATCH-958
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-958
> Project: Qpid Dispatch
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 1.0.1
> Reporter: Alan Conway
> Assignee: Ben Hardesty
> Priority: Major
>
> All the configuration attributes related to security are well documented, but
> it's not at all easy to figure out which attributes you need to set in order
> to create basic secure configurations.
> Suggest adding a section to chapter 3 of the dispatch book showing how to
> configure:
> * Entirely insecure router for trusted network/development work
> * Simple SSL
> * SASL PLAIN+SSL for simple secure authentication.
> * allow-insecure+PLAIN (no SSL) for simple auth in a trusted network/dev env.
> * at least one of SASL's distributed auth mechansims (Kerberos, LDAP)
> We don't want to document everything about SASL, but we do need to show all
> the ways it can be used from dispatch - at least enough so people can look
> at e.g. an LDAP dispatch example and then use SASL/Kerb docs to figure out
> how to turn that into appropriate Kerberos config etc.
