realmd is a project for joining a machine in in realms/domains (like
Active Directory and FreeIPA) and configuring domain logins and related
stuff.
What's new in 0.13:
===================
* Pull in translations from transifex
* Detect incorrect passwords when using 'net ads join' login via RPC
* Use ipa-client-install to provide join functionality for IPA domains
* Don't assume that we can use kerberos to validate admin password
* Allow specifying --membership-software when discovering a realm
* Only use the XDG user data directory if it exists
* Quit the daemon when SIGTERM or SIGINT received
* Implement cancellation of operations
* Documentation fixes
* Add documentation about realmd internals
* Update commands and packages for Debian
* Use /var/cache/realmd instead of /tmp
* Build fixes and lots of other bugs fixed
