Hi,
are there any plans (or maybe ongoing work already) to let FreeIPA run
in a K8s environment?

Removal & clean up certificates from o=ipaca
by David Goudet
Hello all,
I have to clean up lot of useless certificate in dirsrv database.
Because of resubmit loop on Certmonger client, i have 99,9% of certificate in dirsrv database that are useless and not obsolete (expiration in 2020) (it represent ~85 000 certificates).
These useless certificates produce some issues on FreeIPA:
- decrease FreeIPA performances on CLI and GUI
- increase the LDAP size
- increase size and time of FreeIPA backup
...
Is it possible to purge these certificates in dirsrv database and how?
I found two branches in LDAP directory about these certificates:
dn: cn=xxx,ou=ca,ou=requests,o=ipaca
dn: cn=yyy,ou=certificateRepository,ou=ca,o=ipaca
I can remove all requests and certificates entry from dirsrv database but how it is supported by PKI manager Dogtag (CRL, certificate generation, OCSP)?
(This topic has already been discuss on https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/freeipa-users@lists.fedoraho...)
Thank you for you help

ipa-replica-install fails when I use custom certificates
by Peter Tselios
I have installed the ipa server by using the following command:
---------
ipa-server-install
--realm "EXAMPLE.COM" -p 'password' -a 'password'
--hostname="server.example.com" -n example.com
--ip-address="10.1.4.2"
--dirsrv-cert-file=/etc/pki/tls/private/example.com.pem
--dirsrv-cert-file=/etc/pki/tls/certs/example.com.crt
--dirsrv-pin=''
--http-cert-file=/etc/pki/tls/certs/example.com.crt
--http-cert-file=/etc/pki/tls/private/example.com.pem
--http-pin=''
--ca-cert-file=/etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/myca.pem
--ca-cert-file=/etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/mysubca.pem
--mkhomedir -N
--no-host-dns
--unattended
---------
Which works perfectly fine.
However, I cannot make it work with ipa-replica-install since there is no option for --ca-cert-file.
So, how can I install a replica with custom certificates?

FreeIPA CA failing to login with new admin user
by Stasiek Michalski
Hello,
I installed FreeIPA replica on 4.8.4 on CentOS 8 from 4.4.4 from Fedora
25 with `ipa-replica-install --setup-dns --auto-forwarders`, without
`--setup-ca` due to errors, which went fine. I do want to install CA
though, which failed when I did `--setup-ca` and then later
`ipa-ca-install` with the following error:
```
[4/29]: creating installation admin user
Unable to log in as uid=admin-freeipa2.infra.opensuse.org,ou=people,o=ipaca on ldap://freeipa.infra.opensuse.org:389
[hint] tune with replication_wait_timeout
[error] NotFound: uid=admin-freeipa2.infra.opensuse.org,ou=people,o=ipaca did not replicate to ldap://freeipa.infra.opensuse.org:389
Your system may be partly configured.
Run /usr/sbin/ipa-server-install --uninstall to clean up.
```
Obviously I did try try extending the timeout based on that, but I don't
think that was helpful in the end, considering the logs produced by the
old server:
httpd access_log

I don't particularly know how to proceed from here, since those errors
don't mean much to me. I see however it's not just me having issues with
`ipa-ca-install` at least similar to this one (although by the looks of
it, the reason is already different ;)
Thanks in advance for trying,

IPA-Error 903: InternalError on Certificate page
by Nico Maas
Dear all,
I am using FreeIPA, Version: 4.8.4 on CentOS 8

ipa-server-dns.noarch 4.8.4-7.module_el8.2.0+374+0d2d74a1 @AppStream
Whenever I open the "Authentication" tab in the freeIPA webserver, I get the error
"IPA-Error 903: InternalError. An internal error has happend".
Retry does not help, within Authentication I can use all tabs, except from the Authentication -> Certificate -> Certificate one. This one gives the error. I can also not search for a certificate. The other areas of Authentication -> Certificate (Certificate Profiles, CA ACLS, Certificate Authorities) work without problems.
As a test I cloned the machine and updated it to the latest CentOS 8 version with a newer freeIPA version on it, but that did not solve the problem and I scrapped this vm and idea again.
Any idea on how to resolve the issue / what could be broken?
Which logs and things would be useful to look into?
Thanks a lot for your help and have a nice day

Auto cleanup old enrolled hosts
by Russ Long
We're adding FreeIPA to an immutable, often rotated environment (AWS ECS Hosts). These hosts are spun up and down at least daily. Is there a way to check FreeIPA to see when a host has last communicated with the FreeIPA Cluster? I'd like to use this information to auto-delete hosts that have not reported in from the FreeIPA host list.

Problem running IPA client on IPv6 only connection
by William Muriithi
Hello,
I have an IPA clients that has both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. One of the
IPA client is in the office and hence can reach the IPA server on both IPv4
and IPv6. However, the client outside the LAN can only reach the IPA server
over IPv6.
I was able to enroll the external client fine over IPv6 and from the logs,
all clean. However, when I attempted to ssh, its not able to retreave the
user from IPA. The client in the office works fine. I can also make for
example LDAP queries and they work over IPv6 fine. It looks like kerberos
is somehow however using IPv4. I reached this conclusion after taking a
tcpdump when attempting to ssh to the server and the kerberos traffic from
the client to IPA is on IPv4.
What would I need to do on the IPA client for it to prefer IPv6? I am
aware I could remove IPv4 address from DNS, but that would break any
communication from IPv4 only systems. Any assistance would be appreaciated.

ssh key issues
by Andrew Meyer
I recently cleaned up a few server in my home lab. Deleted servers that I no longer needed. However It seems I have a server with an IP address that used previously. FreeIPA is reporting that it is in /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts but I can't reverse engineer the hostname by doing sshkey -R 1.2.3.4. I have run into this issue previously but it has bee quite some time. When I go to delete the line from /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts it is gone. If someone could help me that would be great. I didn't see anything on my FreeIPA master that indicated I did anything there.

Could not login with AD user
by Ronald Wimmer
Today I was not able to log in with an AD user to an IPA client within a
test setup. IPA users worked fine.
DNS is managed externally. I figured out that the DNS-Record of that
particular IPA client has not been created correctly. After having
corrected the DNS entry and having dropped the SSSD cache on that client
I could login with my AD user.
Do you have an explanation for that or was it just a coincidence?
Cheers,
Ronald

freeipa/certmonger for openvpn user certificates
by Patrick Spinler
Hi,
I'm setting up an openvpn server and I'd like to use our already existing FreeIPA CA to issue user keys/certs for openvpn's use. Since our OpenVPN box is a freeipa client, I thought it'd be nice to use certmonger to issue and keep up to date these certs.
Ergo, I've created a certificate profile:
pat@apex-freeipa ~$ ipa certprofile-show --all OpenVPNUserCert
dn: cn=OpenVPNUserCert,cn=certprofiles,cn=ca,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com
Profile ID: OpenVPNUserCert
Profile description: OpenVPN User Certificates
Store issued certificates: FALSE
objectclass: ipacertprofile, top
And also a CA acl. For experimentation (and working vs our test freeipa) I've left this as wide open as I can:
[pat@apex-freeipa ~]$ ipa caacl-show --all OpenVPN_User_Certificate_ACL
dn: ipaUniqueID=6dde33a6-7849-11e9-aa05-525400b52c7b,cn=caacls,cn=ca,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com
ACL name: OpenVPN_User_Certificate_ACL
Enabled: TRUE
CA category: all
Profile category: all
User category: all
Host category: all
Service category: all
ipauniqueid: 6dde33a6-7849-11e9-aa05-525400b52c7b
objectclass: ipaassociation, ipacaacl
Then, on my openvpn server, I ask for a cert for use for one of my users (myself, in this case):
root@apex-openvpn:~# ipa-getcert request -f /etc/openvpn/client/pat.crt -k /etc/openvpn/client/pat.key -r -N 'CN=pat,O=INT.APEXMW.COM' -K pat -g 4096 --profile OpenVPNUserCert
New signing request "20190603014016" added.
But, it fails due to an access err vs the 'userCertificate' attribute of my account:
root@apex-openvpn:~# ipa-getcert list
(...snippy snip excess...)
Request ID '20190603014016':
status: CA_REJECTED
ca-error: Server at https://apex-freeipa.int.apexmw.com/ipa/xml denied our request, giving up: 2100 (RPC failed at server. Insufficient access: Insufficient 'write' privilege to the 'userCertificate' attribute of entry 'uid=pat,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com'.).
stuck: yes
key pair storage: type=FILE,location='/etc/openvpn/client/pat.key'
certificate: type=FILE,location='/etc/openvpn/client/pat.crt'
CA: IPA

post-save command:

If I look at the dirsrv log, here's the accesses I see for this request (trimmed off the date/time to make the lines a _little_ shorter):

To begin with, I note that this session does a BIND with 'dn=""', right at the beginning, it's essentially an anonymous bind, yah?
That operation near the end, here:
op=17 SRCH base="cn=caacls,cn=ca,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com" scope=1 filter="(&(objectClass=ipaassociation)(objectClass=ipacaacl))"
seems like it might be kinda key. and indeed, if I attempt to run this by hand as an anonymous bind, I get no results:
root@apex-freeipa slapd-INT-APEXMW-COM# ldapsearch -x -h localhost -b dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com -s sub "(|(objectClass=ipaassociation)(objectClass=ipacaacl))"

It's only if I run this as an _authenticated_ bind, that I can find my ACL:

Is this (using certmonger to auto-issue signed certs/keys for my openvpn users) going to be essentially impossible to do, here? Do I need to go a more traditional route of creating a seperate keystore/certdb, issuing a CSR, and feeding that to FreeIPA to sign?
Any advice appreciated, and thanks in advance,
