#### OIDC authentication for Ubuntu

authd is a powerful authentication service for Ubuntu, designed to integrate with OIDC identity providers.
It delivers a secure, flexible solution for organizations and individuals who are transitioning
to cloud-based identity management on Ubuntu workstations and servers.
authd uses the OAuth Device Authorization Grant and ensures a consistent and secure login experience across
Ubuntu Desktop and Server — whether through GDM, SSH, or network services like NFS and Samba.

Key Features

* Cloud identity provider Integration: Connects with any OpenID Connect compliant identity provider.
* Secure Login: authd leverages the OAuth Device Authorization Grant RFC 8628-compliant workflows for reliability
  and security.
* Open-Source: Free and community-driven, with contributions welcomed.
* Enterprise ready: Ubuntu Pro customers will benefit from the same expanded security and support guarantees.
* authd is free for all Ubuntu Desktop and Server 24.04 LTS users and is under active development.

## Enable snaps on openSUSE and install authd-oidc

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.

You need first add the *snappy* repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.

Tumbleweed:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
```

Leap 15.x:

```
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
```

If needed, Swap out `openSUSE_Leap_15.` for, `openSUSE_Leap_16.0` if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.

With the repository added, import its GPG key:

```
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
```

Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new *snappy* repository:

```
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
```

Snap can now be installed with the following:

```
sudo zypper install snapd
```

You then need to either reboot, logout/login or `source /etc/profile` to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the *snapd* and the *snapd.apparmor* services with the following commands:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
```
