The FreeIPA team is proud to announce FreeIPA v4.0.2!
It can be downloaded from http://www.freeipa.org/page/Downloads. The
builds will be available for Fedora 21. Builds for Fedora 20 are
available in the official
[https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/mkosek/freeipa/ COPR repository].
== Highlights in 4.0.2 ==
=== Enhancements ===
* TOTP watermark support was added. The last token interval is now being
added to database and replicated in FreeIPA realm. Note that the number
of writes is kept the same as an unnecessary LDAP write was eliminated.
* Effective Attributes widget in the Add Permission Web UI page was improved
* ipa-csreplica-manage can now set CA renewal master
* trust-add is now capable of ensuring conditions for a Trust are met
prior to establishing it in complex environments (e.g. only adding trust
via AD DC with a PDC role in a forest root domain, falling back when no
closest AD DC is available for the local site)
=== Bug fixes ===
* Server installation with certificates signed by external CA could
crash with IndexError
* ipa-client-install could add duplicate "sss" to /etc/nsswitch.conf
when configuring sudo
* ipa-client-install crashed when non-zero minSSF was set on FreeIPA server
* Installers and helper tools now communicate with certmonger via its
DBUS API instead of manipulating its configuration files, fixing the
related intermittent uninstallation failures
* idrange-* commands no longer allow unsupported range types
(ipa-ad-winsync, ipa-ipa-trust)
* user-add no longer fails when --user-auth-type is specified
* Entries in Schema Compatibility tree are now accessible anonymously by
default to aid legacy clients.
== Known Issues ==
* The Directory Server may crash during install due to 389-ds bug 47889
(https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/47889).
* Enumeration in SSSD may fail due to 389-ds bug 47885
(https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/47885).
* Zone removal may misbehave due to a bind-dyndb-ldap bug. If FreeIPA
is used to manage DNS root zones, bind-dyndb-ldap 5.1 or higher is
recommended. Bind-dyndb-ldap 5.2 was built for Fedora 20
(http://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/mkosek/freeipa/build/31135/), 21
(https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/bind-dyndb-ldap-5.2-1.fc21),
rawhide (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=575841).
== Upgrading ==
An IPA server can be upgraded simply by installing updated rpms. The
server does not need to be shut down in advance.
Please note that if you are doing the upgrade in special environment
(e.g. FedUp) which does not allow running the LDAP server during upgrade
process, upgrade scripts need to be run manually after the first boot:
# ipa-ldap-updater --upgrade
# ipa-upgradeconfig
Also note that the performance improvements require an extended set of
indexes to be configured. RPM update for an IPA server with a excessive
number of users may require several minutes to finish.
If you have multiple servers you may upgrade them one at a time. It is
expected that all servers will be upgraded in a relatively short period
(days or weeks, not months). They should be able to co-exist peacefully
but new features will not be available on old servers and enrolling a
new client against an old server will result in the SSH keys not being
uploaded.
Downgrading a server once upgraded is not supported.
Upgrading from 3.3.0 and later versions is supported. Upgrading from
previous versions is not supported and has not been tested.
An enrolled client does not need the new packages installed unless you
want to re-enroll it. SSH keys for already installed clients are not
uploaded, you will have to re-enroll the client or manually upload the keys.
== Feedback ==
Please provide comments, bugs and other feedback via the freeipa-users
mailing list (http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-users) or
