Release Notes

2023-10-31 - Kanidm 1.1.0-beta14

This is the fourteenth pre-release of the Kanidm Identity Management project. Pre-releases are to help get feedback and ideas from the community on how we can continue to make this project better.

At this point we believe we are on the final stretch to making something we consider "release ready". After this we will start to ship release candidates as our focus will now be changing to finish our production components and the stability of the API's for longer term support.

1.1.0-beta14 Release Highlights

  • Replication is in Beta! Please test carefully!
  • Web UI WASM has been split up, significantly improving the responsiveness.
  • Resolved API JSON issues from 1.1.0-beta13
  • Swapped a lot of internal string constants for enums.
  • Added shortcuts for RW token sessions.
  • TLS client validation improvement
  • Minimum TLS key length enforcement on server code.
  • Improvements to exit code returns on CLI commands.
  • Credential reset link timeout issues resolved.
  • Removed a lot of uses of unwrap and expect to improve reliabilty.
  • Account policy framework is now in place.

2023-05-01 - Kanidm 1.1.0-alpha12

This is the twelfth alpha series release of the Kanidm Identity Management project. Alpha releases are to help get feedback and ideas from the community on how we can continue to make this project better for a future supported release.

The project is shaping up very nicely, and a beta will be coming soon! The main reason we haven't done so yet is we haven't decided if we want to commit to the current API layout and freeze it yet. There are still things we want to change there. Otherwise the server is stable and reliable for production usage.

  • Allow configuration of ldap basedn
  • Extend oauth2 session lifetimes, add refresh token support
  • Improve user experience of credential updates via intent tokens
  • Consolidate unix tools
  • Add exclusive process lock to daemon
  • Allow dns/rdns in ldap search contexts
