AFAIK Oracle still produce RHEL based Linux releases for free, however I haven't yet migrated to EL8.

Is there an easy way to go from CentOS 8 Stream to Rocky Linux and would this be the prefered way now? (I need to have freeIPA running obviously and don't want anything to break :)) Second question: We were talking about the Debian Bullseye Client, not freeIPA server. e.g. how to integrate a Debian Bullseye machine into freeIPA... With Buster, we had the freeipa-client which was easy to install via apt, now, it looks like thats not an option anymore... or are we just too early to the party? : Cheers Nico Am Mo., 6.

We've been kicking the tyres over the past few months and it fits our use case and Centos8 going forward doesn't. This isn't a shot at either Centos, Redhat or IBM its a simple statement of fact given the future direction of Centos. They have a script for migration and the maintainer is one of the original creators of Centos which provides a degree of assurance in terms of project scope and continuity. While I like Debian, the body of knowledge associated with Redhat based platforms and relative complexity/fragility of freeIPA would make me think twice before going down this path. That being said, I would like to see a vibrant Debian freeIPA community however depending upon your use case there may be some issues.

After an upgrade, it's telling me that `freeipa-common` is no longer needed and there's no longer a `freeipa-client` package. Is there any way to get an idea of what the situation is with this?

Debian 'bullseye' will be frozen for release next month, so it's likely that it comes only with the client, just like Ubuntu since 20.04. But miracles could happen during the holidays.. Long answer: The server worked fine back in April (with bind 9.11 forced in) when I set up an Azure pipeline and worked through some kinks there to get through the tests. Best coverage I got to was around 95% of all tests. But since then things fell apart and I don't have a working baseline anymore, and shoving updates on top of others haven't helped.. The blocker bug is somewhere between Certmonger, Dogtag CA, Tomcat, and TLS. We'll see how long it still takes until the bug is found and fixed.. _______________________________________________ FreeIPA-users mailing list -- <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: <https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.fedoraproject.org%2Fen-US%2Fproject%2Fcode-of-conduct%2F&data=04%7C01%7C%7Ca71059e4447144cd3cc808d970fa9063%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637665043747015762%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=9Wcz2JuDGlAgNkJsGkdNc6EZlMMTt4nwogPhJnr%2B0ig%3D&reserved=0> https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: <https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffedoraproject.org%2Fwiki%2FMailing_list_guidelines&data=04%7C01%7C%7Ca71059e4447144cd3cc808d970fa9063%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637665043747025719%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=Ta6F9UEljdm%2BwSMqwH3nHHLk8e0e65cfzr2HS48EWLI%3D&reserved=0> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: <https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.fedorahosted.org%2Farchives%2Flist%2Ffreeipa-users%40lists.fedorahosted.org&data=04%7C01%7C%7Ca71059e4447144cd3cc808d970fa9063%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637665043747025719%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=IfOLTywNGfAP0HKDzKVYTT%2Bi7WHWYwXneL0sGiaq2oo%3D&reserved=0> https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: <https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpagure.io%2Ffedora-infrastructure&data=04%7C01%7C%7Ca71059e4447144cd3cc808d970fa9063%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637665043747025719%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=4%2FBNLLlT4RUuXiwO4VKhqyHu6gn6%2FvhRBTF4%2B4jnwHQ%3D&reserved=0> https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
