When customer environment uses ldap the default uid check for the Open iT server fails. This update adds a configuration option that allows multiple alternatives by adding UID_CHECK option to openit.cfg. Parameters can be * skip (drop uid verification completley) * scan (verify /etc/passwd and NIS compliance) * full (use system call) The current default is scan. The full option may cause the server to read /etc/shadow and thus trigger a security alert in a very strict environment.
Unpack tar file in e.g /tmp/patch on the Open iT host. Do the following as root: cd /tmp/patch ./patch.pl
