If you don't want to use ldapi then you can remove the ldap_uri setting
in /etc/ipa/default.conf. The default for the framework is to use
ldap://localhost:389/
ipaObject is defined as an auxiliary objectclass so it is up to the
plugin author to ensure that the objectclass is included an a UUID generated.
ipaUniqueId is a MUST attribute so if you include the objectclass you must
ensure that the uuid is generated.
This also fixes up some unrelated unit test failures.
- attribute re-mapping, ordering and hiding
(Enables plugins to completely hide LDAP internals from users
and full localisation of command output.)
- translation of member DNs into object names
(No more DNs when listing group members etc.)
- support for "singleton" LDAP objects
(Objects like "pwpolicy"; not accessed by primary key.)
- new base classes for commands: LDAPModMember, LDAPAddMember
and LDAPRemoveMember
(Providing support for objects with 'member'-like attributes.)
- LDAPSearch implicit exit code changed to 1 when nothing is found
This involves creating a new CA instance on the replica and using pkisilent
to create a clone of the master CA.
Also generally fixes IPA to work with the latest dogtag SVN tip. A lot of
changes to ports and configuration have been done recently.
Returning the exception value doesn't work because a shell return value
is in the range of 0-255.
The default return value is 1 which means "something went wrong." The only
specific return value implemented so far is 2 which is "not found".
There are some operations, like those for the certificate system, that
don't need to write to the directory server. So instead we have an entry
that we test against to determine whether the operation is allowed or not.
This is done by attempting a write on the entry. If it would succeed then
permission is granted. If not then denied. The write we attempt is actually
invalid so the write itself will fail but the attempt will fail first if
access is not permitted, so we can distinguish between the two without
polluting the entry.
ldap2.find_entries now returns a tuple containing 2 values. First,
a list of entries (dn, entry_attrs), Second, the truncated flag. If
the truncated flag is True, search results hit a server limitation
and are incomplete.
This patch also removes decoding of non-string scalar python types into
unicode (they are left unchanged).
