This could be a decision but it's missing from the design. The diff I see from current supported directory servers are that they actually have their own management tools, which is not the case for local DB. Again, you may state that the various userXXX and groupXXX commandline utilities are the way to manage it, but this is lacking from the design. _______________________________________________ Engine-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-devel
