When users with missing default group were searched, IPA suffix was
not passed so these users were searched in a wrong base DN. Thus,
no user was detected and added to default group.

One find_entry_by_attr call did not set a search base leading to
LDAP search call with zero search base. This leads to false negative
results from LDAP.
Add new users to the default users group in batches of 100. The
biggest overhead of migration is in calculating the modlist when
managing the default user's group and applying the changes. A
significant amount of time can be saved by not doing this on every
add operation.
Some other minor improvements include:
Add a negative cache for groups not found in the remote LDAP server.
Replace call to user_mod with a direct LDAP update.
Catch some occurances of LimitError and handle more gracefully.
I also added some debug logging to report on migration status and
performance.

openldap server does not store its schema in cn=schema entry, but
rather in cn=subschema. Add a fallback to ldap2 plugin to read from
this entry when cn=schema is not found. ldap2 plugin uses the schema
when doing some of the automatic encoding, like an automatic
encoding of DN object.
IPA migration plugin DN attribute processing is now also more
tolerant when it finds that some DN attribute was not autoencoded.
It tries to convert it to DN on its own and report a warning and
continue with user processing when the conversion fails instead of
crashing with AssertionError and thus abandoning the whole
migration run.

* 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.

When no user/group was found, migration plugin reported an ambiguous
error about invalid container. But the root cause may be for example
in a wrong list of user/group objectclasses. Report both in the error
message to avoid user confusion.
User/group objectclass attribute is now also marked as required.
Without the list of objectclasses, an invalid LDAP search is
produced.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2206
When 2 groups in a remote LDAP server share the same GID number,
the migration may fail entirely with incomprehensible message. This
should not be taken as unrecoverable error - GID number check is
just a sanity check, a warning is enough. This patch also makes
sure that GID check warnings include a user name to make
an investigation easier.

ticket #2566
When specifying a container to ds-migrate we should not automatically
append the basedn if it is provided by the end-user.
This is easy to detect using DN objects because DN objects have a
endswith() method which can easily and correctly ascertain if a base
already exists.
Ticket #2555
We were generating a traceback (server error) if a malformed RDN was
passed as a parameter to the migrate command.
* add parameter validation functions validate_dn_param() and
validate_rdn_param() to ipalib.util. Those functions simply invoke
the DN or RDN constructor from our dn module passing it the string
representation. If the constructor does not throw an error it's
valid.
* Add the parameter validation function pointers to the Param objects
in the migrate command.
* Make the usercontainer and groupcontainer parameters required.
passing --usercontainer= on the command line will produce
ipa: ERROR: 'user_container' is required
* Fix _get_search_bases() so if a container dn is empty it it just
uses the base dn alone instead of faulting (currently
bullet-proofing because now the containers are required).
* Update the doc for usercontainer and groupcontainer to reflect the
fact they are DN's not RDN's. A RDN can only be one level and it
should be possible to have a container more than one RDN removed
from the base.
Migrated users don't get a private group, there is no safe way to verify
that the namespace is correct without redoing the uidnumber as well.
Verify that the GID at least points to a valid group on the remote server
and warn if it doesn't (this doesn't guarantee that the group gets migrated
but at least we try).
If the remote entry has no gidNumber then don't migrate that user. We
don't know why that user is non-POSIX, it could be a special user used
for auth, for example.
Add a loginshell if the remote user doesn't have one.

Ticket #2274 implements a check for compat plugin and warns user if
it is enabled. However, there are 2 issues connected with the plugin:
1) The check is performed against the remote (migrated) LDAP server
and not the local LDAP server, which does not make much sense
2) When the compat plugin is missing in cn=plugins,cn=config, it
raises an error and thus breaks the migration
This patch fixes both issues.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2508
Added check into migration plugin to warn user when compat is enabled.
If compat is enabled, the migration fails and user is warned that he
must turn the compat off or run the script with (the newly introduced)
option '--with-compat'.
'--with-compat' is new flag. If it is set, the compat status is ignored.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2274
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.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1919https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2314
Improve migration help topic so that it easier understandable:
- Add missing list of Topic commands
- Add one more example to demonstrate migration abilities
- Add breaks to too long lines to improve readibility
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2174
Remove "List" parameter type and replace all occurences of it with appropriate
multi-valued parameter ("Str" in most cases) with csv enabled.
Add new parameter type "Any", capable of holding values of any type. This is
needed by the "batch" command, as "Str" is not suitable type for the "methods"
parameter.
ticket 2007
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()
Since IPA v2 server already contain predefined groups that may collide
with groups in migrated (IPA v1) server (for example admins, ipausers),
users having colliding group as their primary group may happen to belong
to an unknown group on new IPA v2 server.
Implement --group-overwrite-gid option to overwrite GID of already
existing groups to prevent this issue.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1866
When group/user is migrated, the attribute used for RDN may be
multivalued. Make sure that we pick the value used in the RDN
which should be the unique one and not just the first one.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1892
This patch reverts the use of pygettext for i18n string extraction. It
was originally introduced because the help documentation for commands
are in the class docstring and module docstring.
Docstrings are a Python construct whereby any string which immediately
follows a class declaration, function/method declaration or appears
first in a module is taken to be the documentation for that
object. Python automatically assigns that string to the __doc__
variable associated with the object. Explicitly assigning to the
__doc__ variable is equivalent and permitted.
We mark strings in the source for i18n translation by embedding them
in _() or ngettext(). Specialized extraction tools (e.g. xgettext)
scan the source code looking for strings with those markers and
extracts the string for inclusion in a translation catalog.
It was mistakingly assumed one could not mark for translation Python
docstrings. Since some docstrings are vital for our command help
system some method had to be devised to extract docstrings for the
translation catalog. pygettext has the ability to locate and extract
docstrings and it was introduced to acquire the documentation for our
commands located in module and class docstrings.
However pygettext was too large a hammer for this task, it lacked any
fined grained ability to extract only the docstrings we were
interested in. In practice it extracted EVERY docstring in each file
it was presented with. This caused a large number strings to be
extracted for translation which had no reason to be translated, the
string might have been internal code documentation never meant to be
seen by users. Often the superfluous docstrings were long, complex and
likely difficult to translate. This placed an unnecessary burden on
our volunteer translators.
Instead what is needed is some method to extract only those strings
intended for translation. We already have such a mechanism and it is
already widely used, namely wrapping strings intended for translation
in calls to _() or _negettext(), i.e. marking a string for i18n
translation. Thus the solution to the docstring translation problem is
to mark the docstrings exactly as we have been doing, it only requires
that instead of a bare Python docstring we instead assign the marked
string to the __doc__ variable. Using the hypothetical class foo as
an example.
class foo(Command):
'''
The foo command takes out the garbage.
'''
Would become:
class foo(Command):
__doc__ = _('The foo command takes out the garbage.')
But which docstrings need to be marked for translation? The makeapi
tool knows how to iterate over every command in our public API. It was
extended to validate every command's documentation and report if any
documentation is missing or not marked for translation. That
information was then used to identify each docstring in the code which
needed to be transformed.
In summary what this patch does is:
* Remove the use of pygettext (modification to install/po/Makefile.in)
* Replace every docstring with an explicit assignment to __doc__ where
the rhs of the assignment is an i18n marking function.
* Single line docstrings appearing in multi-line string literals
(e.g. ''' or """) were replaced with single line string literals
because the multi-line literals were introducing unnecessary
whitespace and newlines in the string extracted for translation. For
example:
'''
The foo command takes out the garbage.
'''
Would appear in the translation catalog as:
"\n
The foo command takes out the garbage.\n
"
The superfluous whitespace and newlines are confusing to translators
and requires us to strip leading and trailing whitespace from the
translation at run time.
* Import statements were moved from below the docstring to above
it. This was necessary because the i18n markers are imported
functions and must be available before the the doc is
parsed. Technically only the import of the i18n markers had to
appear before the doc but stylistically it's better to keep all the
imports together.
* It was observed during the docstring editing process that the
command documentation was inconsistent with respect to the use of
periods to terminate a sentence. Some doc had a trailing period,
others didn't. Consistency was enforced by adding a period to end of
every docstring if one was missing.
The object_name, object_name_plural and messages that use these
attributes have been converted to support translation. The label
attribute in the Param class has been modified to accept unicode
string.
Ticket #1435
When user migrates users/groups from an old DS instance, the
migration may fail on unsupported object classes and/or
relevant LDAP object attributes.
This patch implements a support for object class and attribute
ignore lists that can be used to suppress these migration issues.
Additionally, a redundant "dev/null" file is removed from git repo
(originally added in 26b0e8fc98).

LDAP search operation may return a search reference pointing to
an LDAP resource. As the framework does not handle search
references, skip these results to prevent result processing
failures.
Migrate operation crashed when the migrated DS contained search
references. Now, it correctly skips these records and prints the
failed references to user.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1209
Migration from a v2 server would fail because of our fake memberofindirect
attribute. This isn't in any objectclass so would cause entries to fail
to migrate. We can safely just remove it.
Also remove any limits on time/size when searching for entries on the
remote server. Otherwise only the number of entries configured in the
local IPA server can be migrated.

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

This patch adds new options to the migration plugin:
* the option to fine-tune the objectclass of users or groups being imported
* the option to select the LDAP schema (RFC2307 or RFC2307bis)
Also makes the logic that decides whether an entry is a nested group or user
(for RFC2307bis) smarter by looking at the DNS. Does not hardcode primary keys
for migrated entries.
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/429
Passwords didn't have internationalizable labels.
Exceptions that occured during required input weren't printed as unicode
so weren't being translated properly.
Don't use output_for_cli() directly in the passwd plugin, use output.Output.
ticket 352
We lacked good error messages if the user/group container you used doesn't
exist.
Add a --continue option so things can continue if you use a bad user/group
container. This has the side-effect of letting you migrate just users or
groups by using a bad container for the one you don't want.
Fix a Gettext() error when displaying the migrated password message.
ticket 289
This started as an effort to display a more useful error message in the
Apache error log if retrieving the schema failed. I broadened the scope
a little to include limiting the output in the Apache error log
so errors are easier to find.
This adds a new configuration option, startup_traceback. Outside of
lite-server.py it is False by default so does not display the traceback
that lead to the StandardError being raised. This makes the mod_wsgi
error much easier to follow.
A number of doc strings were not localized, wrap them in _().
Some messages were not localized, wrap them in _()
Fix a couple of failing tests:
The method name in RPC should not be unicode.
The doc attribute must use the .msg attribute for comparison.
Also clean up imports of _() The import should come from
ipalib or ipalib.text, not ugettext from request.
