Privileges needed for ipa-client-install
by Ronald Wimmer
What are the least privileges an IPA user would need to run
ipa-client-install?
I added the permission "System: Add Hosts" to the "Host Enrollment"
privilege but unfortunately that was not sufficient.
Cheers,
Ronald

Login "System error"
by Dominik Vogt
Somehow I've managed to damage the ipa server configuration so
that ipal users cannot login anymore. Local users work fine.
Using the console on the ipa server:
Login: ...
Password: ...
System error
Messages in /var/log/secure say:
--
... login[25478]: pam_sss(login:auth): authentication failure; logname=LOGIN uid=0 euid=0 tty=tty1 ruser= rhost= user=USERNAME
... login[25478]: pam_sss(login:auth): received for user USERNAME: 12 (Authentication token is no longer valid; new one required)
... login[25478]: pam_sss(login:account): Access denied for user USERNAME: 4 (System error)
... login[25478]: System error
--
I've no idea what the problem could be. (The "no longer valid"
message is because it's the initial password that needs to be
changed.)
Ciao
Dominik ^_^ ^_^

POSIX ids of all AD users
by Ronald Wimmer
How could I possibly find the POSIX ids of all mapped Active Directory
users?
I do neither see them in LDAP nor do I find them with IPA user find.

Unfortunately, I do only have LDAP access to our AD. AD is managed by a
separate department.

I still have a working replica, so I could just reinstall and have a
working set in a couple of minutes, but I would like to find out what has
gone wrong.
The systems are running ipa-server-4.6.5-11.el7.centos.3.x86_64
Any help welcome ;-)

Principal name change
by Kobus Bensch
Hi
I can find anything on search so here goes:
I installed freeipa with domain: company.com, but this now needs to change to newcompany.net
Can someone please direct me to docs that i can read to make this change?
Thank you

Re: Renewing a failed to auto-renewal certificate
by Stuart McRobert
Dear flo,
Thanks for the helpful links.
To check whether replication is possible between the three freeipa
servers, via the web interface on each, I have successfully created three
new users:
+ On server 1 create a new user 1 and check they appear on servers 2 & 3 - yes
+ On server 2 create a new user 2 and check they appear on servers 1 & 3 - yes
+ On server 3 create a new user 3 and check they appear on servers 1 & 2 - yes
Then for each user remove them from a different server to where they were
created. This worked as expected.
However I do appear to have one user whose information failed to
correctly replicate some time ago, causing an inconsistency that I am
uncertain on the best way to fix.
On server 1 via web attempt to view this specific user:
Operations Error
Some operations failed.
XXX: user not found
which should be displayed as a preserved user entry but lacks any details
shown other than the "user login".
On server 2 this user appears as an active user, with details, status
disabled.
On server 3 this user appears as a preserved user, with full details, and
a note I added to the Class field a few days ago to see whether it would
then just replicate but failed.
In logs, searching for the user in question on server 1
./httpd/error_log:[Sun Sep 20 10:34:14.256333 2020] [wsgi:error] [pid 29637] [remote IP_ADDRESS:56930] ipa: INFO: [jsonserver_session] sm@OUR_DOMAIN: user_find(u'USER_XXX', sizelimit=0, version=u'2.215', pkey_only=True): SUCCESS

Which just confirms what was seen via the web interface.
Next go looking in /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-OUR-DOMAIN/errors and find lots
of these messages:

Turning next to server 2 and the dirsrv logs there, lots of messages of the form:
[17/Sep/2020:19:33:24.075845464 +0100] - ERR - DSRetroclPlugin - delete_changerecord: could not delete change record 6773158 (rc: 32)

Finally for server 3, dirsrv logs appear to be more about getting started
after certificate problems the other day, rather than issues seen on the
other servers, but this server does appear to display the user fully as
would be desired everywhere.
Our old version appears to lack the 389 command dsconf so not been able to
use that to help.
Summary:
+ Replication appears to work for e.g. new users
+ I guess one entry has failed to be replicated correctly causing the
inconsistent state on the other two servers
+ This should ideally be corrected to avoid further issues???
+ Uncertain about the best way to do this, suggestions very welcome as
first time fixing such problems and I don't want to make it any worse,
after all replications seems to be working for everything else.
Thanks
Best wishes

Replica not renewing IPA certificates
by Roderick Johnstone
Hi
This is freeipa (ipa-server-4.6.5-11.el7_7.3.x86_64) on RHEL7 with
freeipa's own internal CA.
One of my ipa server replicas (host3) has not renewed its IPA system
certificates and is now showing
ca-error: Invalid cookie: u''
in the 'getcert list' output for certificates:
"auditSigningCert cert-pki-ca", "ocspSigningCert cert-pki-ca",
"subsystemCert cert-pki-ca", and the
certificate in the file /var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.pem
As far as I can see, the sequence of events has been as follows:
host3 noticed the certificates needed renewing at 30 Jan 2020 05:37 and
certmonger initiated a renewal.
The state of those certificates went from MONITORING to CA_WORKING but
the certificates were not renewed.
The CA renewal master (host1) noticed its same set of certificates (plus
"Server-Cert cert-pki-ca") needed renewing at 30 Jan 2020 07:28 and
renewed them successfully.
Another replica (host2) noticed that its certificates needed renewing at
30 Jan 2020 07:32 and renewed them successfully.
At 30 Jan 13:37 on host3 the certificates needing to be renewed went
from CA_WORKING back to MONITORING, but 'getcert list' now shows them with:
ca-error: Invalid cookie: u''
and they still haven't renewed.
I haven't seen certmonger attempt to try the renewal again on host3
(nothing from certmonger in /var/log/messages since 30 Jan 13:37).
While I could try a getcert resubmit on host3 to force it to try again,
I'd like to know if what I am seeing is the expected behaviour when a
replica tried to renew certificates before the renewal master.
How long should I have to wait till certmonger on host3 tries again? - I
couldn't find any reference to how often certmonger tries the renewal.
Rob Crittenden's freeipa-healthcheck script is now showing the following
for host3:
