Previous fix for ticket #3161 caused ipa-{server,dns}-install to
skip creation of reverse zone when running in unattended mode. Make
sure that reverse zone is created also in unattended mode (unless
--no-reverse is specified).
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3161
A reverse zone was always configured in the interactive installer
even if you answered "no" to the reverse zone question. The only way
to not confiugre it was the --no-reverse option.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3161
When a new reverse zone is to be generated based on an IP address without
a network prefix length, we need to use some default value. While netaddr
library default ones (32b for IPv4 and 128b for IPv6) are not very sensible
we should use the defaults already applied in installers. That is 24b for
IPv6 and 64 for IPv6.
Test case has been added to cover the new default.

* Convert every string specifying a DN into a DN object
* Every place a dn was manipulated in some fashion it was replaced by
the use of DN operators
* Add new DNParam parameter type for parameters which are DN's
* DN objects are used 100% of the time throughout the entire data
pipeline whenever something is logically a dn.
* Many classes now enforce DN usage for their attributes which are
dn's. This is implmented via ipautil.dn_attribute_property(). The
only permitted types for a class attribute specified to be a DN are
either None or a DN object.
* Require that every place a dn is used it must be a DN object.
This translates into lot of::
assert isinstance(dn, DN)
sprinkled through out the code. Maintaining these asserts is
valuable to preserve DN type enforcement. The asserts can be
disabled in production.
The goal of 100% DN usage 100% of the time has been realized, these
asserts are meant to preserve that.
The asserts also proved valuable in detecting functions which did
not obey their function signatures, such as the baseldap pre and
post callbacks.
* Moved ipalib.dn to ipapython.dn because DN class is shared with all
components, not just the server which uses ipalib.
* All API's now accept DN's natively, no need to convert to str (or
unicode).
* Removed ipalib.encoder and encode/decode decorators. Type conversion
is now explicitly performed in each IPASimpleLDAPObject method which
emulates a ldap.SimpleLDAPObject method.
* Entity & Entry classes now utilize DN's
* Removed __getattr__ in Entity & Entity clases. There were two
problems with it. It presented synthetic Python object attributes
based on the current LDAP data it contained. There is no way to
validate synthetic attributes using code checkers, you can't search
the code to find LDAP attribute accesses (because synthetic
attriutes look like Python attributes instead of LDAP data) and
error handling is circumscribed. Secondly __getattr__ was hiding
Python internal methods which broke class semantics.
* Replace use of methods inherited from ldap.SimpleLDAPObject via
IPAdmin class with IPAdmin methods. Directly using inherited methods
was causing us to bypass IPA logic. Mostly this meant replacing the
use of search_s() with getEntry() or getList(). Similarly direct
access of the LDAP data in classes using IPAdmin were replaced with
calls to getValue() or getValues().
* Objects returned by ldap2.find_entries() are now compatible with
either the python-ldap access methodology or the Entity/Entry access
methodology.
* All ldap operations now funnel through the common
IPASimpleLDAPObject giving us a single location where we interface
to python-ldap and perform conversions.
* The above 4 modifications means we've greatly reduced the
proliferation of multiple inconsistent ways to perform LDAP
operations. We are well on the way to having a single API in IPA for
doing LDAP (a long range goal).
* All certificate subject bases are now DN's
* DN objects were enhanced thusly:
- find, rfind, index, rindex, replace and insert methods were added
- AVA, RDN and DN classes were refactored in immutable and mutable
variants, the mutable variants are EditableAVA, EditableRDN and
EditableDN. By default we use the immutable variants preserving
important semantics. To edit a DN cast it to an EditableDN and
cast it back to DN when done editing. These issues are fully
described in other documentation.
- first_key_match was removed
- DN equalty comparison permits comparison to a basestring
* Fixed ldapupdate to work with DN's. This work included:
- Enhance test_updates.py to do more checking after applying
update. Add test for update_from_dict(). Convert code to use
unittest classes.
- Consolidated duplicate code.
- Moved code which should have been in the class into the class.
- Fix the handling of the 'deleteentry' update action. It's no longer
necessary to supply fake attributes to make it work. Detect case
where subsequent update applies a change to entry previously marked
for deletetion. General clean-up and simplification of the
'deleteentry' logic.
- Rewrote a couple of functions to be clearer and more Pythonic.
- Added documentation on the data structure being used.
- Simplfy the use of update_from_dict()
* Removed all usage of get_schema() which was being called prior to
accessing the .schema attribute of an object. If a class is using
internal lazy loading as an optimization it's not right to require
users of the interface to be aware of internal
optimization's. schema is now a property and when the schema
property is accessed it calls a private internal method to perform
the lazy loading.
* Added SchemaCache class to cache the schema's from individual
servers. This was done because of the observation we talk to
different LDAP servers, each of which may have it's own
schema. Previously we globally cached the schema from the first
server we connected to and returned that schema in all contexts. The
cache includes controls to invalidate it thus forcing a schema
refresh.
* Schema caching is now senstive to the run time context. During
install and upgrade the schema can change leading to errors due to
out-of-date cached schema. The schema cache is refreshed in these
contexts.
* We are aware of the LDAP syntax of all LDAP attributes. Every
attribute returned from an LDAP operation is passed through a
central table look-up based on it's LDAP syntax. The table key is
the LDAP syntax it's value is a Python callable that returns a
Python object matching the LDAP syntax. There are a handful of LDAP
attributes whose syntax is historically incorrect
(e.g. DistguishedNames that are defined as DirectoryStrings). The
table driven conversion mechanism is augmented with a table of
hard coded exceptions.
Currently only the following conversions occur via the table:
- dn's are converted to DN objects
- binary objects are converted to Python str objects (IPA
convention).
- everything else is converted to unicode using UTF-8 decoding (IPA
convention).
However, now that the table driven conversion mechanism is in place
it would be trivial to do things such as converting attributes
which have LDAP integer syntax into a Python integer, etc.
* Expected values in the unit tests which are a DN no longer need to
use lambda expressions to promote the returned value to a DN for
equality comparison. The return value is automatically promoted to
a DN. The lambda expressions have been removed making the code much
simpler and easier to read.
* Add class level logging to a number of classes which did not support
logging, less need for use of root_logger.
* Remove ipaserver/conn.py, it was unused.
* Consolidated duplicate code wherever it was found.
* Fixed many places that used string concatenation to form a new
string rather than string formatting operators. This is necessary
because string formatting converts it's arguments to a string prior
to building the result string. You can't concatenate a string and a
non-string.
* Simplify logic in rename_managed plugin. Use DN operators to edit
dn's.
* The live version of ipa-ldap-updater did not generate a log file.
The offline version did, now both do.

SOA serial autoincrement is a requirement for major DNS features,
e.g. zone transfers or DNSSEC. Enable it by default in named.conf
both for new and upgraded installations. Name of the bind-dyndb-ldap
option is "serial_autoincrement".
From now on, idnsSOAserial attribute also has to be put to
replication agreement exclude list as serial will be incremented
on each DNS server separately and won't be shared. Exclude list
has to be updated both for new replication agreements and the
current ones.
Minimum number of connections for bind-dyndb-ldap has been rised
to 4 connections, the setting will be updated during package upgrade.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2554
From IPA version 3.0, the persistent search is a preferred mechanism
to for DNS zone list management. It will be also a requirement for
several bind-dyndb-ldap features, like SOA serial automatic updates
or DNSSEC.
Make this mechanism default in ipa-server-install and ipa-dns-istall.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2524
All of our install/admin scripts had a try/except block calling the
main function and handling common exceptions. These were copy-pasted
from each other and modified to various levels of sophistication.
This refactors them out of installers to a single function, which
includes a final pass/fail message for all of the scripts.
Non-install scripts that set up the same log handler levels for
stderr and log file are not changed, as it's not possible to log
to only the logfile without changing the logger configuration.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2071
IPA client and server tool set used authconfig acutil module to
for client DNS operations. This is not optimal DNS interface for
several reasons:
- does not provide native Python object oriented interface
but but rather C-like interface based on functions and
structures which is not easy to use and extend
- acutil is not meant to be used by third parties besides
authconfig and thus can break without notice
Replace the acutil with python-dns package which has a feature rich
interface for dealing with all different aspects of DNS including
DNSSEC. The main target of this patch is to replace all uses of
acutil DNS library with a use python-dns. In most cases, even
though the larger parts of the code are changed, the actual
functionality is changed only in the following cases:
- redundant DNS checks were removed from verify_fqdn function
in installutils to make the whole DNS check simpler and
less error-prone. Logging was improves for the remaining
checks
- improved logging for ipa-client-install DNS discovery
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2730https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1837
Global DNS configuration is a nice tool to maintain a common DNS
settings stored in LDAP which are then used for all enrolled IPA
servers. However, the settings stored in LDAP override local
settings in named.conf on DNS servers.
This patch adds more information about global DNS configuration
options in install scripts and DNS module help.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2525
Server framework calls acutil.res_send() to send DNS queries used
for various DNS tests. However, once acutil is imported it does
not change its list of configured resolvers even when
/etc/resolv.conf is changed. This may lead to unexpected
resolution issues.
We should at least reload httpd when we change /etc/resolv.conf to
point to FreeIPA nameserver to force a new import of acutil and
thus workaround this bug until it is resolved in authconfig.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2481
Admin e-mail validator currently requires an email to be in
a second-level domain (hostmaster@example.com). This is too
restrictive. Top level domain e-mails (hostmaster@testrelm)
should also be allowed.
This patch also fixes default zonemgr value in help texts and man
pages.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2272
A server may have 2 or more NICs and its hostname may thus resolve
to 2 and more forward addresses. IP address checks in install
scripts does not expect this setup and may fail or crash.
This script adds a support for multiple forward addresses for
a hostname. The install scripts do not crash now. When one IP
address is needed, user is asked to choose from all detected
server IP addresses.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2154
change default_logger_level to debug in configure_standard_logging
add new ipa_log_manager module, move log_mgr there, also export
root_logger from log_mgr.
change all log_manager imports to ipa_log_manager and change
log_manager.root_logger to root_logger.
add missing import for parse_log_level()
Do at least a basic validation of DNS zone manager mail address.
Do not require '@' to be in the mail address as the SOA record
stores this value without it and people may be used to configure
it that way. '@' is always removed by the installer/dns plugin before
the DNS zone is created.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1966
When getpass.getpass() function is interrupted via CTRL+D, EOFError
exception is thrown. Most of the install tools are not prepared for
this event and crash with this exception. Make sure that it is
handled properly and nice error message is printed.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1916
Integrate new bind-dyndb-ldap features to automatically track
DNS data changes:
1) Zone refresh
Set --zone-refresh in installation to define number of seconds
between bind-dyndb-ldap polls for new DNS zones. User now
doesn't have to restart name server when a new zone is added.
2) New zone notifications
Use LDAP persistent search mechanism to immediately get
notification when any new DNS zone is added. Use --zone-notif
install option to enable. This option is mutually exclusive
with Zone refresh.
To enable this functionality in existing IPA installations,
update a list of arguments for bind-dyndb-ldap in /etc/named.conf.
An example when zone refresh is disabled and DNS data change
notifications (argument psearch of bind-dyndb-ldap) are enabled:
dynamic-db "ipa" {
...
arg "zone_refresh 0";
arg "psearch yes";
};
This patch requires bind-dyndb-ldap-1.0.0-0.1.b1 or later.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/826
When DNS plugin is installed via ipa-dns-install and user has a valid
Kerberos ticket at the time, the DNS installation is corrupt and named
won't start, reporting Preauthentication error.
When the non-DM identity is used for authentication, krbprincipalkey
attribute in DNS service LDAP record is not created, thus leading
to the error. This patch makes sure that authentication with Directory
Manager password is used every time.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1483
Create reverse DNS zone for /24 IPv4 subnet and /64 IPv6 subnet by
default instead of using the netmask from the --ip-address option.
Custom reverse DNS zone can be specified using new --reverse-zone
option, which replaces the old --ip-address netmask way of creating
reverse zones.
The reverse DNS zone name is printed to the user during the install.
ticket 1398
Implements a way to pass match_local and parse_netmask parameters
to IP option checker.
Now, there is just one common option type "ip" with new optional
attributes "ip_local" and "ip_netmask" which can be used to
pass IP address validation parameters.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1333
--no-host-dns option should allow installing IPA server on a host
without a DNS resolvable name.
Update parse_ip_address and verify_ip_address functions has been
changed not to return None and print error messages in case of
an error, but rather let the Exception be handled by the calling
routine.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1246
When a new reverse zone was created in ipa-replica-prepare (this
may happen when a new replica is from different subnet), the master
DNS address was corrupted by invalid A/AAAA record. This caused
problems for example in installing replica.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1223
The changes include:
* Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
* Add GPLv3+ license text
* Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/239
Notable changes include:
* parse AAAA records in dnsclient
* also ask for AAAA records when verifying FQDN
* do not use functions that are not IPv6 aware - notably socket.gethostbyname()
The complete list of functions was taken from http://www.akkadia.org/drepper/userapi-ipv6.html
section "Interface Checklist"
Uses a new subclass IPAOptionParser in scripts instead of OptionParser
from the standard python library. IPAOptionParser uses its own IPAOption
class to store options, which adds a new 'sensitive' attribute.
