Configures PKI to remove expired certificates and non-resolved requests on a schedule. This is geared towards ACME which can generate a lot of certificates over a short period of time but is general purpose. It lives in ipa-acme-manage because that is the primary reason for including it. Random Serial Numbers v3 must be enabled for this to work. Enabling pruning enables the job scheduler within CS and sets the job user as the IPA RA user which has full rights to certificates and requests. Disabling pruning does not disable the job scheduler because the tool is stateless. Having the scheduler enabled should not be a problem. A restart of PKI is required to apply any changes. This tool forks out to pki-server which does direct writes to CS.cfg. It might be easier to use our own tooling for this but this makes the integration tighter so we pick up any improvements in PKI. The "cron" setting is quite limited, taking only integer values and *. It does not accept ranges, either - or /. No error checking is done in PKI when setting a value, only when attempting to use it, so some rudimentary validation is done.

FreeIPA Server
FreeIPA allows Linux administrators to centrally manage identity, authentication and access control aspects of Linux and UNIX systems by providing simple to install and use command line and web based management tools.
FreeIPA is built on top of well known Open Source components and standard protocols with a very strong focus on ease of management and automation of installation and configuration tasks.
FreeIPA can seamlessly integrate into an Active Directory environment via cross-realm Kerberos trust or user synchronization.
Benefits
FreeIPA:
- Allows all your users to access all the machines with the same credentials and security settings
- Allows users to access personal files transparently from any machine in an authenticated and secure way
- Uses an advanced grouping mechanism to restrict network access to services and files only to specific users
- Allows central management of security mechanisms like passwords, SSH Public Keys, SUDO rules, Keytabs, Access Control Rules
- Enables delegation of selected administrative tasks to other power users
- Integrates into Active Directory environments
Components
The FreeIPA project provides unified installation and management tools for the following components:
- LDAP Server - based on the 389 project
- KDC - based on MIT Kerberos implementation
- PKI based on Dogtag project
- Samba libraries for Active Directory integration
- DNS Server based on BIND and the Bind-DynDB-LDAP plugin
