  • Project Status
    • Redirected non-FSUID logins directly to FSUID password reset; added “last login” timestamp (shows last LDAP authentication from any app) on personal & helpdesk pages.  The FSUID home page is now leaner and meaner (hopefully easier to navigate).  New buzz phrase: “What’s my FSUID?”.
    • Added FSUSN view page (only if FSUSN is populated).  FSUSNs to be populated “any day now”.  FSUSNs will have to use upper case letters, due to mainframe restrictions..we could just allow case-insensitive letters in any FSUID pages.
    • 8/15/2004: Getting ready to migrate IS Secure Login to use “native” FSUID and eDir, rather than ldap2 (http://admin-c6140-10.uc.fsu.edu:8080/SecureLogin/login or devo3.ais.fsu.edu/SecureLogin/login).  Note the FSUID advertisements on the IS pages.
    • Working out procedure for the ability of Secure Login to create CARS usernames (and thus FSUIDs) directly at time person registers account, rather than waiting for the backends to catch up.
    • Last details of how to reset College of Medicine WinAD passwords via LDAP: waiting on OTI Windows group to set up AD-wide cert (at the ad.fsu.edu level) so the COM can just use it (at the med.ad.fsu.edu level).
    • Met with School of Music folks about their enterprise identity needs (mostly Windows-based services); still working with figuring out dynamic groups for “sub-root” access to tech-savvy departments (FilmSchool, for example).
  • Action Items
    1. Vote on horizontal *vs* vertical layout of Outlook/host name authentication, where ever it occurs within FSUID web pages
    2. Vote on “minimzing” the non-FSUID authentication methods…make them only allow reset of FSUID password and not full access to all FSUID pages?
    3. [IS] Re-design CARS pages to match look & feel of FSUID pages.  This has been transformed to now read: design FSUID pages to match the look & feel of FSUID pages but to do the functionality required for the existing CARS pages.
    4. Fran has agreed to modify UCS/CARS password change algorithm to match modified FSUID password change algorithm – this means one could use special characters in the first character position.  A proposal has been floated to relax the special character, given the strong “obvious value” algorithm.
    5. [UCS, IS] Integrate FSUID management closer to CARS (e.g., when person changes CARS password or user name, immediately change it in the eDir!)
    6. [IS] Write web-based documentation explaining how to use eDir for authentication (pure LDAP, UNIX passwd file, RADIUS, Apache auth_ldap, etc.)
    7.  [IS] Write Perl “LDAP failover” module; get mod_perl working on fsuid.fsu.edu.
    8.  [IS, ODDL] Connect C.A.S. to Secure Login, Blackboard & FSUID, all pointing to eDir.
    9.  [Group – longer term] Continue working SSN à FSNSN replacement discussions with campus .
    10. Populate/associate Novell account information into eDir (still need a Novell proxy admin account))
