​ In this walkthrough, Massimiliano Gori (Product Manager, Identity Access Management) and Rajan Patel (Product Manager, Landscape) describe how to bring Entra ID authentication on Ubuntu Server at scale with Landscape, Authd, and cloud-init.

The talk will cover:

– A brief introduction of Authd, the new OIDC authentication daemon for Ubuntu

– Authd’s capabilities and how to configure it for single sign on with Entra ID

– How to automate Authd configuration using cloud-init

– Landscape, what it is, and how it can be used to facilitate the above configuration and automation
