I have two IdM/FreeIPA instances running in a test lab environment, built with self-signed certs and CA.  Both have CA installed.

I want to replace the self-signed with a real, external CA as it will be in production.

Hi,

you can follow the steps in https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/change-cert-chaining

As you are interested in self-signed -> externally-signed CA, the doc will redirect you to https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/cert-renewal#manual-cert-renewal

You will need to run
ipa-cacert-manage renew --external-ca

The command will produce a CSR that you need to submit to the external CA. When you receive the cert, you will need to run
ipa-cacert-manage renew --external-cert-file=/path/to/new/cacert.pem

Note: as a prerequisite, the external CA cert needs to be known by IPA. In order to do that, run
ipa-cacert-manage install -t CT,C,C /path/to/externalCA.pem
then (on all nodes)
ipa-certupdate

(if the chain is complex and contains a rootCA + a subCA, run the command a first time with the rootCA, then a second time with the subCA).

HTH,
flo

Would I use this:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/ca-less-to-ca

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 : Linux Domain Identity, Authentication, and Policy Guide - 26.8. Installing a CA Into an Existing IdM Domain

or this:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/cert-renewal#manual-cert-renewal-ext

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 : Linux Domain Identity, Authentication, and Policy Guide - 26.2.2.2. Renewing an Externally-Signed IdM CA Certificate Manually

This use-case is not clearly documented (if at all)
