[Freeipa-users] Read-only permission with no authentication

2016-05-17 Thread Stephen Berg (Contractor)
I'm trying to set up an account that will only have read permissions to 
FreeIPA's user and host info to get some automated documentation tasks 
running.  Basically I want to set up a cron job on a FreeIPA server that 
will read info using the ipa command line tools like "ipa user-find", 
"ipa user-show --all" and some of the host commands.  After it reads 
that info I can handle it in perl to maintain some documentation 
requirements.  But I don't want to be forced into saving a password 
anywhere along the way if I can avoid it.


Is there a way to set an account so it will be able to run those ipa 
commands in a read-only state but not have any authentication requirement?

[Freeipa-users] Getting client status

2016-04-14 Thread Stephen Berg (Contractor)
I'm looking for a command line method to get current status on a client 
without having a ticket or authenticating to the IPA domain.


Back in the NIS days from a client you could run "ypwhich" and be able 
to know if that system were bound to the NIS and which server it had 
bound to.  So far I can't find a way to do a similar function in FreeIPA.


I'd to do this from a cron job on each client once a day.

We're running a mix of SciLinux 6.7 and 7.2.  The servers are all on 7.2 
running ipa VERSION: 4.2.0, API_VERSION: 2.156.
