"FreeIPA allows Linux administrators to centrally manage identity, authentication and access control aspects of Linux and UNIX systems by providing simple to install and use command line and web based management tools. FreeIPA is built on top of well known Open Source components and standard protocols with a very strong focus on ease of management and automation of installation and configuration tasks. FreeIPA can seamlessly integrate into an Active Directory environment via cross-realm Kerberos trust or user synchronization. Benefits FreeIPA: Allows all your users to access all the machines with the same credentials and security settings Allows users to access personal files transparently from any machine in an authenticated and secure way Uses an advanced grouping mechanism to restrict network access to services and files only to specific users Allows central management of security mechanisms like passwords, SSH Public Keys, SUDO rules, Keytabs, Access Control Rules Enables delegation of selected administrative tasks to other power users Integrates into Active Directory environments"

Hello everybody, I'm developing a custom authentication module. As part of the process I have to redirect the user to a second site and then the second site redirect the user back to the custom module. For this I'm using the RedirectCallback, but while debugging I noticed that the module gets initialized a second time after the users comes back from the second site. I was wondering if this is the expected behavior or if I'm doing something wrong. This is how the callbacks are defined in the xml.

CopyFS aims to solve a common problem : given a directory, especially one full of configuration files, or other files that one can modify, and which can affect the functionning of a system, or of programs, that may be important to other users (or to the user himself), how to be sure that a person modifying the files will do a backup of the working version first ? This filesystem solves the problem by making the whole process transparent, automatically keeping versionned copies of all the changes done to file under its control. It also allows a user to select an old version of the files, for example to repair a mistake, and allows him/her to continue edition from this point.

"Users aren't the problem with security. It's that we've designed our computer systems' security so badly that we demand the user do all of these counterintuitive things."

"Apache Giraph is an iterative graph processing system built for high scalability. For example, it is currently used at Facebook to analyze the social graph formed by users and their connections. Giraph originated as the open-source counterpart to Pregel, the graph processing architecture developed at Google and described in a 2010 paper. Both systems are inspired by the Bulk Synchronous Parallel model of distributed computation introduced by Leslie Valiant. Giraph adds several features beyond the basic Pregel model, including master computation, sharded aggregators, edge-oriented input, out-of-core computation, and more. With a steady development cycle and a growing community of users worldwide, Giraph is a natural choice for unleashing the potential of structured datasets at a massive scale."

"This specification standardizes a packaging format and metadata for a class of software known commonly as packaged apps or widgets. Unlike traditional user interface widgets (e.g., buttons, input boxes, toolbars, etc.), widgets as specified in this document are full-fledged client-side applications that are authored using technologies such as HTML and then packaged for distribution. Examples range from simple clocks, stock tickers, news casters, games and weather forecasters, to complex applications that pull data from multiple sources to be "mashed-up" and presented to a user in some interesting and useful way."

"Silverpeas is an Open-Source Collaborative and Social Web Portal mainly used by our users to build an Intranet or an Extranet. The key words of Silverpeas are collaboration and social network. Atop of a collaborative bus and a social network engine, about 30 ready to use applications are freely available to share documents (EDM Electronic Document Management), to streamline project management, to manage content (CMS), and to optimize the management of knowledge and skills. Among the ready to use applications, you can find: EDM, Pictures Gallery, directories, calendars, workflow, forms, blog, wiki, forums, project management, and so on. It offers also a non-technical mechanism of delegation of rights and a powerful transverse taxonomy mechanism, that is coupled with the search engine, enable users to find rapidly the information they are looking for."

"Every GitHub Page is run through Jekyll when you push content to a specially named branch within your repository. For User Pages, use the master branch in your username.github.io repository. "

Es un problemón conocido y con blancos sin estandarizar el juntar SAML 2.0 en cuanto a AuhN y Oauth2 para autorización. Éste post es el mas sintético que encontré con un agregado de valor muy alto: Deja entrever que aunque no sea estándar, el mecanismo es posible, y se basa en convertir una aserción SAML2 en un token de acceso OAuth2. uno puede transliterar ésta propocisión así: "convertir una aserción CLAVE FISCAL en un token de acceso OAuth2".  La pregunta es: ¿Que será una aserción CLAVE FISCAL?

"HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) technologies are relevant when the data challenges being faced push the limits of what can be addressed by traditional database systems, XML documents, or in-house data formats. Leveraging the powerful HDF products and the expertise of The HDF Group, organizations realize substantial cost savings while solving challenges that seemed intractable using other data management technologies. Many HDF adopters have very large datasets, very fast access requirements, or very complex datasets. Others turn to HDF because it allows them to easily share data across a wide variety of computational platforms using applications written in different programming languages. Some use HDF to take advantage of the many open-source and commercial tools that understand HDF. Similar to XML documents, HDF files are self-describing and allow users to specify complex data relationships and dependencies. In contrast to XML documents, HDF files can contain binary data (in many representations) and allow direct access to parts of the file without first parsing the entire contents. HDF, not surprisingly, allows hierarchical data objects to be expressed in a very natural manner, in contrast to the tables of relational database. Whereas relational databases support tables, HDF supports n-dimensional datasets and each element in the dataset may itself be a complex object. Relational databases offer excellent support for queries based on field matching, but are not well-suited for sequentially processing all records in the database or for subsetting the data based on coordinate-style lookup."
