Thanks for the feedback Rob,

I've updated she scripts with your suggestions except for using certmonger which is probably more work, I've created GitHub issue for refactoring using certmonger.

Hi,

Thought I should introduce myself and post a link to some recent work
which might be relevant for some of you.

My name is Antonia Stevens and I'm a DevOps Engineer and long time
FreeIPA user.

We recently had a need to get proper certs for IPA servers in AWS which
means they have multiple IPs/DNS Names/Principals, since I could not
find anything I hacked together a couple of bash scripts to make it a
bit easier.

Thanks for all the great work and depending on my schedule I might try
to contribute a bit more going forward.

This looks very cool. I haven't executed it yet but from reading the scripts here are a few ideas/suggestions.

- it may be better to get the kerberos realm from /etc/ipa/default.conf
- I have the feeling this requires at least IPA v4.5.0. Probably worthwhile to document which version(s) are known to work
- A cronjob wouldn't be necessary if certmonger was used to do the renewal. The script would need to be modified to work as a certmonger CA but then it could handle restarting the services, etc.
