Unix components

Safeguard Authentication Services includes the following Unix components.

Table 5: Unix components
Unix component Description

vasd

The Safeguard Authentication Services agent background process that manages the persistent cache of Active Directory information used by the other Safeguard Authentication Services components. vasd is installed as a system service. You can start and stop vasd using the standard service start/stop mechanism for your platform. vasd is installed by the vasclnt package.

vastool

The Safeguard Authentication Services command line administration utility that allows you to join a Unix host to an Active Directory Domain; access and modify information about users, groups, and computers in Active Directory; and configure the Safeguard Authentication Services components. vastool is installed at /opt/quest/bin/vastool. vastool is installed by the vasclnt package.

vasgmsaupdate

Service to keep gMSA passwords always up to date

vgptool

A command line utility that allows you to manage the application of Group Policy settings to Safeguard Authentication Services clients. vgptool is installed at /opt/quest/bin/vgptool. vgptool is installed by the vasgp package.

oat (Ownership Alignment Tool)

A command line utility that allows you to modify file ownership on local Unix hosts to match user accounts in Active Directory. oat is installed at /opt/quest/libexec/oat/oat. oat is installed by the vasclnt package.

LDAP proxy

A background process that secures the authentication channel for applications using LDAP bind to authenticate users without introducing the overhead of configuring secure LDAP (LDAPS). The LDAP proxy is installed by the vasproxy package.

NIS proxy

A background process that acts as a NIS server which can provide backwards compatibility with existing NIS infrastructure. The NIS proxy is installed by the vasyp package.

SDK package

The vasdev package, the Safeguard Authentication Services programming API.

Permissions matrix

The following table details the permissions required for full Safeguard Authentication Services functionality.

Table 6: Required permissions
Function Active Directory permissions Local client permissions
Safeguard Authentication Services Application Configuration: creation Location in Active Directory with Create Container Object rights N/A
Safeguard Authentication Services Application Configuration: changes
  • Unix Global Settings
  • Licensing
  • Schema Attributes, including Unix Attributes
Update permission to the containers created above (no particular permissions if you are the one who created it) N/A
Schema optimization Schema Administrator rights N/A
Display Specifier Registration Enterprise Administrator rights N/A
Editing Users Administrator rights N/A

Create any group policy objects

Group Policy Creator Owners rights

N/A

RFC 2307 NIS Import Map Wizard Location in Active Directory with Create Container Object rights (you create containers for each NIS map) N/A
Unix Account Import Wizard Administrator rights (you are creating new accounts) N/A
Logging Options Write permissions to the file system folder where you want to create the logs N/A
vasd daemon

The client computer object is expected to have read access to user and group attributes, which is the default.

In order for Safeguard Authentication Services to update the host object operating system attributes automatically, set the following rights for "SELF" on the client computer object: Write Operating System, Write operatingSystemHotfix, and Write operatingSystemServicePack.

vasd must run as root
QAS/VAS PAM module N/A (updated by means of vasd) Any local user
QAS/VAS NSS module

vastool nss

N/A (updated by means of vasd) Any local user
vastool command-line tool Depends on which vastool command is run Any local user for most commands

vastool join

vastool unjoin

vastool delete Permissions to delete existing users, groups, or computers as specified; permissions to remove the keytab entry for the host object created (root or write permissions in the directory and the file) Any local user
vastool flush The client computer object is expected to have read access to user and group attributes, which should be the default root

vastool kinit

vastool klist

vastool kdestroy

Local client needs permissions to modify the keytab specified; default is the computer object, which is root. Any local user
vastool ktutil N/A root if you are using the default host.keytab file
vastool list (with -l option) Read permission for the desired objects (regular Active Directory user) Any local user
vastool load Permissions to create users and groups in the desired container Any local user
