This change addresses a long-standing issue in rST documentation imported from XML. That import process added backslash escapes in front of various characters. The three most common being '(', ')', and '_'. These instances are removed. Signed-off-by: Ron Stone <ronald.stone@windriver.com> Change-Id: Id43a9337ffcd505ccbdf072d7b29afdb5d2c997e

Overview of Windows Active Directory
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
|prod-long| can be configured to use a remote Windows Active Directory server
|
|
to authenticate users of the Kubernetes API, using the **oidc-auth-apps**
|
|
application.
|
|
|
|
The **oidc-auth-apps** application installs a proxy |OIDC| identity provider
|
|
that can be configured to proxy authentication requests to an |LDAP| (s)
|
|
identity provider, such as Windows Active Directory. For more information, see,
|
|
`https://github.com/dexidp/dex <https://github.com/dexidp/dex>`__. The
|
|
**oidc-auth-apps** application also provides an |OIDC| client for accessing the
|
|
username and password |OIDC| login page for user authentication and retrieval
|
|
of tokens. An **oidc-auth** CLI script can also be used for |OIDC| user
|
|
authentication and retrieval of tokens.
|
|
|
|
In addition to installing and configuring the **oidc-auth-apps**
|
|
application, the admin must also configure Kubernetes cluster's
|
|
**kube-apiserver** to use the **oidc-auth-apps** |OIDC| identity provider for
|
|
validation of tokens in Kubernetes API requests.
