Fedora 16 introduced chrony as default client time&date synchronization
service:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ChronyDefaultNTP
Thus, there may be people already using chrony as their time and date
synchronization service before installing IPA.
However, installing IPA server or client on such machine may lead to
unexpected behavior, as the IPA installer would configure ntpd and leave
the machine with both ntpd and chronyd enabled. However, since the OS
does not allow both chronyd and ntpd to be running concurrently and chronyd
has the precedence, ntpd would not be run on that system at all.
Make sure, that user is warned when trying to install IPA on such
system and is given a possibility to either not to let IPA configure
ntpd at all or to let the installer stop and disable chronyd.

This is done as a default action of the ancestor class so that no matter what
platform is currently used this code is always the same and the name is the
wellknown service name.
This information will be used by ipactl to stop only and all the services that
have been started by any ipa tool/install script

Dogtag opens not only the insecure port (8080 or 9180, for d10 and
d9 respectively), but also secure ports (8443 or 9443&9444).
Wait for them when starting.
Part of the fix for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3084
Put the changes from Ade's dogtag 10 patch into namespaced constants in
dogtag.py, which are then referenced in the code.
Make ipaserver.install.CAInstance use the service name specified in the
configuration. Uninstallation, where config is removed before CA uninstall,
also uses the (previously) configured value.
This and Ade's patch address https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2846
Dogtag 10 uses a new installer, new directory layout and new default
ports. This patch changes the ipa install code to integrate these changes.

Certificate renewal can be done only one one CA as the certificates need
to be shared amongst them. certmonger has been trained to communicate
directly with dogtag to perform the renewals. The initial CA installation
is the defacto certificate renewal master.
A copy of the certificate is stored in the IPA LDAP tree in
cn=ca_renewal,cn=ipa,cn=etc,$SUFFIX, the rdn being the nickname of the
certificate, when a certificate is renewed. Only the most current
certificate is stored. It is valid to have no certificates there, it means
that no renewals have taken place.
The clones are configured with a new certmonger CA type that polls this
location in the IPA tree looking for an updated certificate. If one is
not found then certmonger is put into the CA_WORKING state and will poll
every 8 hours until an updated certificate is available.
The RA agent certificate, ipaCert in /etc/httpd/alias, is a special case.
When this certificate is updated we also need to update its entry in
the dogtag tree, adding the updated certificate and telling dogtag which
certificate to use. This is the certificate that lets IPA issue
certificates.
On upgrades we check to see if the certificate tracking is already in
place. If not then we need to determine if this is the master that will
do the renewals or not. This decision is made based on whether it was
the first master installed. It is concievable that this master is no
longer available meaning that none are actually tracking renewal. We
will need to document this.

All service start/restart currently go through ipapython/platform so
move the "wait for service to start" code there as well.
A dictionary of known services and ports to wait on is defined in base.py
This is referenced by the platforms by instance name to determine what
to wait for. For the case of dirsrv if we get that as a plain name
(no specific instance) it is assumed to be the main IPA service.

Add method for getting configuration directory path of a service,
so that a different SSH configuration directory can be specified on
different platforms.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/754
Refactor FreeIPA code to allow abstracting all calls to external processes and
dependencies on modification of system-wide configuration. A platform provider
would give its own implementation of those methods and FreeIPA would use it
based on what's built in packaging process.
