Replacing selfsigned cert with external signed CA

[Jan Gardian]

Hello,

Could you please recommend procedure to replace self signed IPA 
certificate with external signed CA?

I found this 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/...


but it is for renewal and I am not sure if it can be used for replacement.
In manual pages for ipa-cacert-manage there is option install but in 
statements it has: "Important: this does not replace IPA CA but adds the 
provided certificate as a known CA. This is useful for instance when 
using ipa-server-certinstall to replace HTTP/LDAP certificates with  
third-party  certificates signed by this additional CA."

Thank you

Hi,
if you want to replace a self-signed IPA CA with an externally signed 
IPA CA, you need to use the instructions from
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/...

(that basically point to the link you already found).
ipa-cacert-manage renew --external-ca is the right tool for this procedure.

HTH,
