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.

Currently, FreeIPA's install/admin scripts are long pieces of code
that aren't very reusable, importable, or testable.
They have been extended over time with features such as logging and
error handling, but since each tool was extended individually, there
is much inconsistency and code duplication.
This patch starts a framework which the admin tools can use, and
converts ipa-ldap-updater to use the framework.
Common tasks the tools do -- option parsing, validation, logging
setup, error handling -- are represented as methods. Individual
tools can extend, override or reuse the defaults as they see fit.
The ipa-ldap-updater has two modes (normal and --upgrade) that
don't share much functionality. They are represented by separate
classes. Option parsing, and selecting which class to run, happens
before they're instantiated.
All code is moved to importable modules to aid future testing. The
only thing that remains in the ipa-ldap-updater script is a two-line
call to the library.
First part of the work for:

Many functions use low-level socket interface for connection or
various checks. However, most of the time we don't respect
automatic address family detection but rather try to force our
values. This may cause either redundat connection tries when an
address family is disabled on system tries or even crashes
when socket exceptions are not properly caught.
Instead of forcing address families to socket, rather use
getaddrinfo interface to automatically retrieve a list of all
relevant address families and other connection settings when
connecting to remote/local machine or binding to a local port.
Now, we will also fill correctly all connection parameters like
flowinfo and scopeid for IPv6 connections which will for example
prevent issues with scoped IPv6 addresses.
bind_port_responder function was changed to at first try to bind
to IPv6 wildcard address before IPv4 as IPv6 socket is able to
accept both IPv4 and IPv6 connections (unlike IPv4 socket).
nsslib connection was refactored to use nss.io.AddrInfo class to
get all the available connections. Socket is now not created by
default in NSSConnection class initializer, but rather when the
actual connection is being made, becase we do not an address family
where connection is successful.

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.

The client does a fair bit of work when trying to validate the hostnames,
do discovery and verify that the server it gets back is an IPA server.
The debug logging around this was horrid with very little state information,
duplicate log messages or just nothing at all.
In many cases errors were printed only to stderr/stdout.
This patch makes the logging and output go through the IPA log manager.
It sets up logging so that INFO, WARNING, and ERROR messages show up on the
console. If -d is given, DEBUG messages are also printed.
All messages also go to the log file.
The only exception is user input: prompts are only printed to the console,
but if the user provides any information it is echoed in a DEBUG-level
message.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2553
Try to use the URI /ipa/session/xml if there is a key in the kernel
keyring. If there is no cookie or it turns out to be invalid (expired,
whatever) then use the standard URI /ipa/xml. This in turn will create
a session that the user can then use later.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2331
When IPA package is being updated, some of the configuration files
are also updated. Sometimes it may be useful to store upgrade meta
information for next package upgrades. For example an information
that some config file was already updated and we don't want to
update it again if user purposedly reverted the change.
This patch adds a new StateFile in /var/lib/ipa/sysupgrade which
is capable of holding this information. New sysupgrade.py module
was created to provide simple API to access the upgrade state
information.
We don't have a specific requires on the policycoreutils package. It
gets pulled in as a dependency on the server anyway, but checking
there is like a belt and suspenders.
On the client we don't require SELinux at all. If SELinux is enabled
however we need to set things up properly. This is provided by the
policycoreutils package so fail if that isn't available.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2368
When default server was being parsed from IPA's default.conf
configuration file, the parsed server was not appended correctly to
the default_server list.
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

IPA has some unused code from abandoned features (Radius, ipa 1.x user
input, commant-line tab completion), as well as some duplicate utilities.
This patch cleans up the utility modules.
Duplicate code consolidated into ipapython.ipautil:
{ipalib.util,ipaserver.ipautil,ipapython.ipautil}.realm_to_suffix
{ipaserver,ipapython}.ipautil.CIDict
(with style improvements from the ipaserver version)
{ipapython.entity,ipaserver.ipautil}.utf8_encode_value
{ipapython.entity,ipaserver.ipautil}.utf8_encode_values
ipalib.util.get_fqdn was removed in favor of the same function in
ipaserver.install.installutils
Removed unused code:
ipalib.util:
load_plugins_in_dir
import_plugins_subpackage
make_repr (was imported but unused; also removed from tests)
ipapython.ipautil:
format_list
parse_key_value_pairs
read_pairs_file
read_items_file
user_input_plain
AttributeValueCompleter
ItemCompleter
ipaserver.ipautil:
get_gsserror (a different version exists in ipapython.ipautil)
ipaserver.ipautil ended up empty and is removed entirely.

certmonger now has the ability to execute a script when it renews a
certificate. This can be used to automatically restart servers so
the certificate doesn't expire in the running server.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2050
The client installer was failing because a backend connection could be
created before a kinit was done.
Allow multiple simultaneous connections. This could fail with an NSS
shutdown error when the second connection was created (objects still
in use). If all connections currently use the same database then there
is no need to initialize, let it be skipped.
Add additional logging to client installer.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2478
There are two sides to this, the server and client side.
On the server side we attempt to add a defaultNamingContext on already
installed servers. This will fail on older 389-ds instances but the
failure is not fatal. New installations on versions of 389-ds that
support this attribute will have it already defined.
On the client side we need to look for both defaultNamingContext and
namingContexts. We still need to check that the defaultNamingContext
is an IPA server (info=IPAV2).
The migration change also takes advantage of this and adds a new
option which allows one to provide a basedn to use instead of trying
to detect it.

ipautil.run expects a tuple of passwords for nolog; passing a
single string causes all individual letters from that string to
be replaced by Xes.
This fixes such a call, and adds a sanity check to ipautil.run
that prevents lone strings from being used in nolog.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2419
Also check for the existence of restorecon. This may be overkill but
it will prevent a client installation from failing for no good reason.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2368
UDP port checks in ipa-replica-conncheck always returns OK even
if they are closed by a firewall. They cannot be reliably checked
in the same way as TCP ports as there is no session management as
in TCP protocol. We cannot guarantee a response on the checked
side without our own echo server bound to checked port.
This patch removes UDP port checks in replica->master direction
as we would have to implement (kerberos) protocol-wise check
to make the other side actually respond. A list of skipped
ports is printed for user.
Direction master->replica was fixed and now it is able to report
error when the port is blocked.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2062
Provide a way to specify BIND allow-query and allow-transfer ACLs
for DNS zones.
IMPORTANT: new bind-dyndb-ldap adds a zone transfer ability. To
avoid zone information leaks to unintended places, allow-transfer
ACL for every zone is by default set to none and has to be
explicitly enabled by an Administrator. This is done both for new
DNS zones and old DNS zones during RPM update via new DNS upgrade
plugin.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1211
I noticed a couple of bad references in ipapython/dogtag.py and
fixed those as well. We used to call sslget for all our SSL client
needs before python-nss was written.

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
This patch adds a new multivalue param "sshpubkey" for specifying SSH public
keys to both user and host objects. The accepted value is base64-encoded
public key blob as specified in RFC4253, section 6.6.
Additionaly, host commands automatically update DNS SSHFP records when
requested by user.

inifile_replace_variables() works similar to config_replace_variables() but
allows to apply changes to specific section of an inifile. Inifiles are
commonly used by freedesktop.org software and particularly used by systemd.
When modifying inifile, all changes will be applied to specific section.
Also fixes corner case in config_replace_variables() which would dublicate
variables when adding them.
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
I've used code from ipalib/plugins/host.py to add support for random
password generation. The '--random' option is now available in user-add
and user-mod commands. If both the 'password' and 'random' options are
used the 'random' option will be ignored.
Two test cases were added to unit test's module test_user_plugin.py -
they test creating and modifying user with random password. Two fuzzy tests
were added: test for password(string that doesn't start or end with
whitespace and doesn't containt other whitespace than ' ') and for whatever
string(because of krbextradata).
I've slightly modified ipa_generate_password in order to make passwords for
users more user-friendly(reduce number of non-letters). It has two optional
parameters now - first one is string of characters that should be used for
generating the passwd and second one is length of password. If none
parameter is set default values will be used so there's no need to modify
other plugins that use random password generator.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1979
The value stored in certmonger is not guaranteed to be normalized
nor is the value passed-in (could be a relative path and may or not
contain trailing slash). We do direct string compares so they need
to match exactly or we won't find the request.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1942
The default log level for server messages captured by httpd's
error_log historically was INFO. The log_manager patch had it set to
ERROR, this patch resets it back to INFO.
Although it would have been trival to set the default_level to INFO in
IPALogManager.configure_from_env() that is not logically the correct
place. It would be much better if the default_level can be reset by
simply assigning it to the log_mgr. To accomplish that
LogManager.default_level was converted to a property with a getter and
setter. The setter runs LogManager.apply_configuratin() after the
default_level is modified. LogManager.set_default_level() was also
added to allow simultaneously updating the configure_state.
While testing some minor problems were observed and also fixed:
* Removed some print statement which had been left in by mistake
* Removed the ability to set the handler level in the config file
because of chicken-and-egg issues of when handlers get created.
The Env config file format is too inflexible to support detailed
logging configuration. If the Env config format is ever made more
flexible we can come back and add this back in. The handler config
setting in Env had never been used and never worked so there is no
issue in removing it.
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()
When certain features are being configured via authconfig, we need to
remember what was configured and what was the state before it so that
during uninstall we restore proper state of the services.
Mostly it affects sssd configuration with multiple domains but also
pre-existing LDAP and krb5 configurations.
This should fix following tickets:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1750https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1769
Let netaddr.IPAddress() use inet_pton() rather than inet_aton() for
IP address parsing. We will use the same function in IPv4/IPv6
conversions + be stricter and don't allow IP addresses such as
'1.1.1' at the same time.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1965
backup_and_replace_hostname() was doing three things:
1. Given config file in 'key=value' style, replace value for a
specified key (HOSTNAME)
2. Backup original file and install a replacement
3. Restore original security context after editing
We have several more places where parts of the functionality are needed,
thus making two tools in ipapython.ipautil:
1. config_replace_variables(filepath, replacevars=dict(),
appendvars=dict())
Replaces or appends values to specified keys, adding new key=value
pairs if key was absent
2. backup_config_and_replace_variables(fstore, filepath,
replacevars=dict(),
appendvars=dict())
Backups config file and calls config_replace_variables()
A caller must handle security context after using these two tools.
In addition, as before, there is
ipapython.services.backup_and_replace_hostname() that uses
these common tools and restores security context after editing.
The code will be used extensively for systemd integration for Fedora 16.
Fixes:
