Re: [Freeipa-users] FreeIPA backend. Mavericks server shows UIDs instead of usernames in File Sharing.
Hi all, Sorry for the delay. I am sharing with you a couple of scripts and files we use to enroll our Macs (ML and Mavericks) into our FreeIPA domain. Using Luggage ( https://github.com/unixorn/luggage), we package all of these into a one click installer that can be deployed via ARD, Munki, etc. Now, our environment has very specific requirements, so feel free to ask if there's something you don't understand or that seems incomplete. These assume you already know what FreeIPA is, and have it up and running. These also assume that all the server pre-staging (for example, that all applicable DNS records are already created) for the enrollee is done. In sum, these are ideal if all you are missing is to start enrolling Macs into the FreeIPA domain. And you'll have to modify the files to match your FreeIPA domain; we are using example.com for this. The preflight script (freeipa-client-preinstall.sh) will clean the environment of the enrollee, and backup existing files that will be modified during the enrollment process. It * Sets the DNS search domain * Adds a local search domain to the enrollee to speed up the login process if no FreeIPA server is available during login * Backs up edu.mit.Kerberos if it exists * Backs up krb5.conf if it exists * Backs up any existing LDAP info * Backs up /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist The postflight script (freeipa-client-postinstall.sh) performs the enrollment. It * Sets email notifications to know if the enrollment failed or succeeded. These notifications will include the who and the why, and a hardware profile from the enrollee that we find useful * Sets and tests many variables needed for a successful enrollment like NTP syncing, a valid hostname, and whether or not all applicable hosts resolve thru your DNS servers * Adjusts /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow to work properly w/ FreeIPA accounts * Gets opendirectoryd ready for FreeIPA * Enrolls the host to FreeIPA thru multiple keytab manipulations * Gets around problems with anonymous binds in LDAP by using a hidden user for enrollments * Configures the SSH client for GSSAPI authentication * Creates host keys and adds them to FreeIPA * Deletes local user account and leaves home directory intact. This will allow the owner of the machine to log back in using his/her FreeIPA credentials w/out noticing any changes. Of course, for this to happen transparently the home directory has to be massaged. Please let me know if you'd like to know how we do this. I am omitting the details for now as this outside the scope, me thinks. The files inside the Payload folder are: The authorization and screensaver files are FreeIPA ready ones. The postflight script above puts them where they need to go (/private/etc/pam.d). The postflight will add a /private/etc/ipa folder to the enrollee. This folder must contain the following files: ca-crt, ca-crt-selfsigned, example.enroll.keytab. These will make more sense as you go thru the code. These are private, so I am not sharing them. The postflight script will also put FreeIPA ready versions of edu.mit.Kerberos and multiple LDAP config files where they need to go (follow the folder structure in the .zip file attached). These we are sharing; you will have to modify them to match your FreeIPA domain. And this is it. Apologies for the long read.

[Freeipa-users] FreeIPA backend. Mavericks server shows UIDs instead of usernames in File Sharing.
