This is achieved by storing both decoded and encoded attribute values in
LDAPEntry and synchronizing changes between them whenever an attribute is
accessed.
Added a new property "raw" to LDAPEntry. It provides a dictionary-like
object which can be used to directly access encoded attribute values.

Patch for ticket 3964 changed the installer so that it does not
always wait for CA if the proxy is not configured. However,
it was found out that it may freeze an installation when
a step subsequent after CA restart call the CA and receives no
reply.
Change the wait so that it always waits for CA to start up. If
HTTP proxy is already configured, it should wait on port 443.
If not, it should wait on local PKI port 8443.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3973
Proxy configuration was not detected correctly. Both
ipa-pki-proxy.conf and ipa.conf need to be in place and httpd
restarted to be able to check it's status.

Updating a CIDict with data like {'A': 1, 'a': 2} would lead to data
loss since only one of the items would get to the CIDict.
This can result in non-obvious bugs similar to this one in python-ldap:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1007820
Raise an error in this case; any resolution must be done by the caller.
Make the CIDict interface match standard dict (except view* methods).
Add __contains__, __iter__, clear.
Add keyword and iterable support for __init__, update.
Also add values() and itervalues(). Previously the dict versions were
used; the new ones guarantee that the order matches keys().
Mark view* methods as not implemented.
CIDict.copy() now returns a CIDict.
Test the above additions, and fromkeys() which worked but wasn't tested.
Nose doesn't pick up directories that don't begin with 'test'.
Rename ipatests/test_ipaserver/install to test_install so that it's run.
Also, merge test_ipautil.py from ipapython/test into tests/test_ipapython,
so the whole test suite is in one place.
When configuring the 389 Directory Server instance, we tune it
so that number of file descriptors available to the DS is increased
from the default 1024 to 8192.
There are platform specific steps that need to be conducted
differently on systemd compatible platforms and sysV compatible
platforms.
systemd: set LimitNOFILE to 8192 in /etc/sysconfig/dirsrv.systemd
sysV: set ulimit -n 8192 in /etc/sysconfig/dirsrv
set ulimit - nofile 8192 in /etc/security/limits.conf

Differences in the python byte code fails in a build validation
(rpmdiff) done on difference architecture of the same package.
This patch:
1) Ensures that timestamps of generated *.pyo and *.pyc files match
2) Python integer literals greater or equal 2^32 and lower than 2^64
are converted to long right away to prevent different type of
the integer on architectures with different size of int

The plugin hooks into the Nose runner and IPA's logging infrastructure
and calls the appropriate BeakerLib functions (rl*).
IPA's log_manager is extended to accept custom Handler classes.
The ipa-run-tests helper now loads the plugin.

Adds a new simple service called OtpdInstance, that manages
ipa-otpd.socket service. Added to server/replica installer
and ipa-upgradeconfig script.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3680
Since we depend on Dogtag 10 now, there is no need to keep code
that installs a Dogtag 9 CA.
Support for upgraded Dogtag-9-style instances is left in.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3529
The problem is the ca_status() uses an HTTP GET operation to check Dogtag's
status. Under some circumstances Dogtag may take a long time to respond, so the
HTTP GET may time out much earlier than 2 minutes. And since the above code
doesn't catch the exception, the whole loop fails immediately, so it doesn't
wait for a full 2 minutes as expected.

Attempt to automatically save DNA ranges when a master is removed.
This is done by trying to find a master that does not yet define
a DNA on-deck range. If one can be found then the range on the deleted
master is added.
If one cannot be found then it is reported as an error.
Some validation of the ranges are done to ensure that they do overlap
an IPA local range and do not overlap existing DNA ranges configured
on other masters.

These used ipautil.get_ipa_basedn. Convert that to use the new wrappers.
Beef up the error handling in ipaldap to accomodate the errors we catch
in the server discovery.
Add a DatabaseTimeout exception to errors.py.
These were the last uses of ipautil.convert_ldap_error, remove that.

- Automatically add a "Logging and output options" group with the --quiet,
--verbose, --log-file options.
- Set up logging based on these options; details are in the setup_logging
docstring and in the design document.
- Don't bind log methods as individual methods of the class. This means one
less linter exception.
- Make the help for command line options consistent with optparse's --help and
--version options.

dogtag opens its NSS database in read/write mode so we need to be very
careful during renewal that we don't also open it up read/write. We
basically need to serialize access to the database. certmonger does the
majority of this work via internal locking from the point where it generates
a new key/submits a rewewal through the pre_save and releases the lock after
the post_save command. This lock is held per NSS database so we're save
from certmonger. dogtag needs to be shutdown in the pre_save state so
certmonger can safely add the certificate and we can manipulate trust
in the post_save command.
Fix a number of bugs in renewal. The CA wasn't actually being restarted
at all due to a naming change upstream. In python we need to reference
services using python-ish names but the service is pki-cad. We need a
translation for non-Fedora systems as well.
Update the CA ou=People entry when he CA subsystem certificate is
renewed. This certificate is used as an identity certificate to bind
to the DS instance.

Add more dynamic attribute info to IPATypeChecker in make-lint. Remove
unnecessary pylint comments. Fix false positivies introduced by Pylint 0.26.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3379
Major changes ipa-client-install:
* Use GSSAPI connection to LDAP server to download CA cert (now
the default method)
* Add --ca-cert-file option to load the CA cert from a disk file.
Validate the file. If this option is used the supplied CA cert
is considered definitive.
* The insecure HTTP retrieval method is still supported but it must be
explicitly forced and a warning will be emitted.
* Remain backward compatible with unattended case (except for aberrant
condition when preexisting /etc/ipa/ca.crt differs from securely
obtained CA cert, see below)
* If /etc/ipa/ca.crt CA cert preexists the validate it matches the
securely acquired CA cert, if not:
- If --unattended and not --force abort with error
- If interactive query user to accept new CA cert, if not abort
In either case warn user.
* If interactive and LDAP retrieval fails prompt user if they want to
proceed with insecure HTTP method
* If not interactive and LDAP retrieval fails abort unless --force
* Backup preexisting /etc/ipa/ca.crt in FileStore prior to execution,
if ipa-client-install fails it will be restored.
Other changes:
* Add new exception class CertificateInvalidError
* Add utility convert_ldap_error() to ipalib.ipautil
* Replace all hardcoded instances of /etc/ipa/ca.crt in
ipa-client-install with CACERT constant (matches existing practice
elsewhere).
* ipadiscovery no longer retrieves CA cert via HTTP.
* Handle LDAP minssf failures during discovery, treat failure to check
ldap server as a warninbg in absebce of a provided CA certificate via
--ca-cert-file or though existing /etc/ipa/ca.crt file.

The Expires attribute in a cookie is supposed to follow the RFC 822
(superseded by RFC 1123) date format. That format includes a weekday
abbreviation (e.g. Tue) which must be in English according to the
RFC's.
ipapython/cookie.py has methods to parse and format the Expires
attribute but they were based on strptime() and strftime() which
respects the locale. If a non-English locale is in effect the wrong
date string will be produced and/or it won't be able to parse the date
string.
The fix is to use the date parsing and formatting functions from
email.utils which specifically follow the RFC's and are not locale
sensitive.
This patch also updates the unit test to use email.utils as well.
The patch should be applied to the following branches:
Ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3313
In summary this patch does:
* Follow the defined rules for cookies when:
- receiving a cookie (process the attributes)
- storing a cookie (store cookie + attributes)
- sending a cookie
+ validate the cookie domain against the request URL
+ validate the cookie path against the request URL
+ validate the cookie expiration
+ if valid then send only the cookie, no attribtues
* Modifies how a request URL is stored during a XMLRPC
request/response sequence.
* Refactors a bit of the request/response logic to allow for making
the decision whether to send a session cookie instead of full
Kerberous auth easier.
* The server now includes expiration information in the session cookie
it sends to the client. The server always had the information
available to prevent using an expired session cookie. Now that
expiration timestamp is returned to the client as well and now the
client will not send an expired session cookie back to the server.
* Adds a new module and unit test for cookies (see below)
Formerly we were always returning the session cookie no matter what
the domain or path was in the URL. We were also sending the cookie
attributes which are for the client only (used to determine if to
return a cookie). The attributes are not meant to be sent to the
server and the previous behavior was a protocol violation. We also
were not checking the cookie expiration.
Cookie library issues:
We need a library to create, parse, manipulate and format cookies both
in a client context and a server context. Core Python has two cookie
libraries, Cookie.py and cookielib.py. Why did we add a new cookie
module instead of using either of these two core Python libaries?
Cookie.py is designed for server side generation but can be used to
parse cookies on the client. It's the library we were using in the
server. However when I tried to use it in the client I discovered it
has some serious bugs. There are 7 defined cookie elements, it fails
to correctly parse 3 of the 7 elements which makes it unusable because
we depend on those elements. Since Cookie.py was designed for server
side cookie processing it's not hard to understand how fails to
correctly parse a cookie because that's a client side need. (Cookie.py
also has an awkward baroque API and is missing some useful
functionality we would have to build on top of it).
cookielib.py is designed for client side. It's fully featured and obeys
all the RFC's. It would be great to use however it's tightly coupled
with another core library, urllib2.py. The http request and response
objects must be urllib2 objects. But we don't use urllib2, rather we use
httplib because xmlrpclib uses httplib. I don't see a reason why a
cookie library should be so tightly coupled to a protocol library, but
it is and that means we can't use it (I tried to just pick some isolated
entrypoints for our use but I kept hitting interaction/dependency problems).
I decided to solve the cookie library problems by writing a minimal
cookie library that does what we need and no more than that. It is a
new module in ipapython shared by both client and server and comes
with a new unit test. The module has plenty of documentation, no need
to repeat it here.
Request URL issues:
We also had problems in rpc.py whereby information from the request
which is needed when we process the response is not available. Most
important was the requesting URL. It turns out that the way the class
and object relationships are structured it's impossible to get this
information. Someone else must have run into the same issue because
there was a routine called reconstruct_url() which attempted to
recreate the request URL from other available
information. Unfortunately reconstruct_url() was not callable from
inside the response handler. So I decided to store the information in
the thread context and when the request is received extract it from
the thread context. It's perhaps not an ideal solution but we do
similar things elsewhere so at least it's consistent. I removed the
reconstruct_url() function because the exact information is now in the
context and trying to apply heuristics to recreate the url is probably
not robust.

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.
