Hi All,

I've got Postfix working with IPA and to be honest it was actually very
easy. I simply setup a standard postfix server, configured the IPA
client and when mail was delivered, postfix detected the UID's from IPA
and delivered the mail.

So I thought to myself, this is one of the most important services we
have. What would happen if the SSSD client failed for some reason on the
postfix server?

As expected the postfix server bounces the email back to it's sender.

I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not
be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.

For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.

If you do so, please include this problem report. You can

Before I start investigating backup mail servers, different posfix
queues. Just thought I'd ask if anyone else has setup their one solution
to ensure the safety of mail delivery with IPA?


I think this would apply to any non-file-based nss provider (ldap, nis, 
etc). What does your nsswitch.conf look like?


I wonder if something clever can be done like [!UNAVAIL=return]. My nss 
knowledge is limited though so I'm not sure what gets returned to the 
lookup call though, whether it is distinguishable from a notfound.

Also we still keep serving users out of the sssd cache as long as
sssd_nss process is running.
And with the memory cache we have in 1.9.0 you may still get users from
the cache directly even if the whole sssd dies.

Re: [Freeipa-users] error yum install freeipa-server

2012-07-05 Thread george he
Hello Rob,

These are printed to the command window after this line:


  Installing : 
pki-selinux-9.0.20-1.fc17.noarch
 34/96 


The files reported missing are not there after yum install completed.

I turned selinux off ("setenforce 0" and modified /etc/sysconfig/selinux) 
before installing freeipa-server. Don't know whether this caused the files not 
created by yum.

Thanks,
George

BTW by default there should be a netgroup with the same name as a host
group created every time you create a host group so you might even not

Windows clients generally require a lot more from the domain controller
than IPA can provide. And most of the operations are done over the
custom MSFT protocols. There might be a way to make the Windows
workstation to work with IPA to some extent. My dream is to allow the
following use case:

Win7 is joined into and AD domain using AD native tools and then via a
credential provider is configured to authenticate against IPA. If there
is a trust between AD and IPA there should (hopefully) be a way to place
the TGT that is acquired by user auth against IPA into some place where
MSFT kerberos library would think that this is a TGT for a user who came
from a different forest and would use cross realm exchange is user tries
to access resources in the AD domain behind the scenes.
If that made possible it would really create a set of interesting
opportunities as IPA some time in the future would natively support 2FA
over Kerberos for login.

I don't know why this would cause the server to not start but IPA 
doesn't support read-only replicas at this time. What is it you are 
trying to achieve?

Where are you seeing these logged? Some of those files/directories don't

By sssd client failing do you mean sssd not able to reach ldap servers

If sssd parent crashes then i think not much you could do but if the
child services of sssd doesn't respond sssd does restart the child
services automatically .
