Backdoor access

Backdoor access

When federated login is broken and the fix requires access to the Manage you are in a catch-22 situation. You can access the Manage without federated login if you disable the shibboleth AuthType in the apache configuration.

Issue the following commands and the security falls back to basic authentication:

cd /etc/httpd/conf.d/
mv manage.conf manage.conf.shib
mv manage.conf.backdoor manage.conf
service httpd restart

See the ansible environment variables for the correct username / password
