Hi Howdy,
Two questions on IPA usage are listed below. Please help.
1, How to reset a normal IPA user's password through web interface when the
password is expired?
when the normal user's password is close to expiration but still not expired,
he/she can change it by self through the web interface https://ipaserver/.
Otherwise he/she has to do ssh/kinit to update his/her password. But the
problem is: quite some users are non tech-savy -- managers, marketing, sales --
and they have no ideas of Linux or Kerberos, what they can do is accessing a
web interface and filling HTML forms.
Hello David,
This feature was introduced in FreeIPA 3.0, you can see the relevant ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2755
When your IPA server is upgraded to this version (it will be part of next RHEL
6 minor version release), Web UI users with expired password will be
automatically offered a form to reset it.
2, When the freeIPA 3.0 and 3.1 series RPM will be available on Redhat 6?
does IPA version 3.0/3.1 has backup/restore solutions, and merged CA LDAP
instance and IPA LDAP instance?
Merged CA/LDAP instance is available in FreeIPA 3.1 which is not available in
RHEL-6. As for Backup&Restore solution, a FreeIPA provided solution is not
ready yet, but we have a ticket filed and planned already. You can take a look
here:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3128
HTH,
Martin
Presently the IPA version on redhat 6.3 is 2.2.0, I can wait if IPA 3.0 or
3.1 will comes out soon for redhat 6 and have the cool features.
Thanks a lot.
