Currently, CRL files are being exported to /var/lib/pki-ca sub-directory, which is then served by httpd to clients. However, this approach has several disadvantages: * We depend on pki-ca directory structure and relevant permissions. If pki-ca changes directory structure or permissions on upgrade, IPA may break. This is also a root cause of the latest error, where the pki-ca directory does not have X permission for others and CRL publishing by httpd breaks. * Since the directory is not static and is generated during ipa-server-install, RPM upgrade of IPA packages report errors when defining SELinux policy for these directories. Move CRL publish directory to /var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish (common for both dogtag 9 and 10) which is created on RPM upgrade, i.e. SELinux policy configuration does not report any error. The new CRL publish directory is used for both new IPA installs and upgrades, where contents of the directory (CRLs) is first migrated to the new location and then the actual configuration change is made. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3144
IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
