Red Hat Magazine looks
forward to the next major RHEL release
, noting that it looks a lot like
what’s in Fedora now. “For the administrator, however, PolicyKit
opens up a wealth of new possibilities. This can be seen in the
‘Authorizations’ tool in the System Preferences menu. If I choose ‘Setting
the system time’, we can see the authorization I just used. I can edit it,
or add new authorizations for other users. I can even add implicit
authorizations-for example, I could set it so that any user in an active
console session can reset the clock.”
