This commit does 2 changes in the OIDC app docs: 1) The docs were updated to be explicit about the OIDC app being compatible with LDAP servers and not only with the Windows Active Directory; 2) The page "Centralized OIDC Authentication Setup for Distributed Cloud" was renamed to "Centralized vs Distributed OIDC Authentication Setup" and was moved in the index of pages to be right below the first page "Overview of LDAP Servers". The idea is to use this page as a entry point for someone learning about the OIDC app, because every user must decide between a centralized and a distributed setup and because this page has links to all other pages except "Deprovision LDAP Server Authentication".

Install Kubectl and Helm Clients Directly on a Host
|
||
===================================================
|
||
|
||
|
||
As an alternative to using the container-backed Remote |CLIs| for kubectl and
|
||
helm, you can install these commands directly on your remote host.
|
||
|
||
.. rubric:: |context|
|
||
|
||
Kubectl and helm installed directly on the remote host provide the best CLI
|
||
behaviour, especially for CLI commands that reference local files or require a
|
||
shell.
|
||
|
||
The following procedure shows you how to configure the :command:`kubectl` and
|
||
:command:`kubectl` clients directly on a remote host, for an admin user with
|
||
**cluster-admin clusterrole**. If using a non-admin user with only role
|
||
privileges within a private namespace, additional configuration is required in
|
||
order to use :command:`helm`.
|
||
|
||
.. rubric:: |prereq|
|
||
|
||
You will need the following information from your |prod| administrator:
|
||
|
||
|
||
.. _kubernetes-user-tutorials-installing-kubectl-and-helm-clients-directly-on-a-host-ul-nlr-1pq-nlb:
|
||
|
||
- the floating |OAM| IP address of the |prod|
|
||
|
||
- login credential information; in this example, it is the "TOKEN" for a
|
||
local Kubernetes ServiceAccount.
|
||
|
||
.. xreflink For a Windows Active Directory user, see,
|
||
|sec-doc|: :ref:`Overview of LDAP Servers <overview-of-ldap-servers>`.
|
||
|
||
- your kubernetes namespace

#. Set up the local configuration and context.
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
In order for your remote host to trust the certificate used by the
|
||
|prod-long| K8s API, you must ensure that the
|
||
**k8s_root_ca_cert** provided by your |prod| administrator is a
|
||
trusted CA certificate by your host. Follow the instructions for
|
||
adding a trusted CA certificate for the operating system
|
||
distribution of your particular host.
|
||
|
||
If your administrator does not provide a **k8s_root_ca_cert**
|
||
at the time of installation, then specify
|
||
–insecure-skip-tls-verify, as shown below.
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: none
|
||
|
||
% kubectl config set-cluster mycluster --server=https://<$CLUSTEROAMIP>:6443 --insecure-skip-tls-verify
|
||
% kubectl config set-credentials dave-user@mycluster --token=$MYTOKEN
|
||
% kubectl config set-context dave-user@mycluster --cluster=mycluster --user admin-user admin-user@mycluster --namespace=$MYNAMESPACE
|
||
% kubectl config use-context dave-user@mycluster
|

#. Test remote :command:`kubectl` access.
