easy_ipa Puppet module

Build Status

Overview

This module will install and configure IPA servers, replicas, and clients. This module was forked from huit-ipa, and refactored with a focus on simplicity and ease of use.

The following features work great:

  • Creating a domain.
  • Adding IPA server replicas.
  • Joining clients.
  • WebUI proxy to https://localhost:8440 (for vagrant testing).

The following features were stripped out and are currently unavailable:

  • Autofs configuration.
  • Sudo rule management.
  • Host management (beyond simple client domain joins).
  • Host joins via one time passwords.
  • Dns zone management (beyond creating an initial zone).

Dependencies

This module requires puppetlabs/stdlib >= 4.13.0.

Usage

Example usage:

Creating an IPA master, with the WebUI proxied to https://localhost:8440.

class {'easy_ipa':
    ipa_role                    => 'master',
    domain                      => 'vagrant.example.lan',
    ipa_server_fqdn             => 'ipa-server-1.vagrant.example.lan',
    admin_password              => 'vagrant123',
    directory_services_password => 'vagrant123',
    install_ipa_server          => true,
    ip_address                  => '192.168.44.35',
    enable_ip_address           => true,
    enable_hostname             => true,
    manage_host_entry           => true,
    install_epel                => true,
    webui_disable_kerberos      => true,
    webui_enable_proxy          => true,
    webui_force_https           => true,
}

Adding a replica:

class {'::easy_ipa':
    ipa_role             => 'replica',
    domain               => 'vagrant.example.lan',
    ipa_server_fqdn      => 'ipa-server-2.vagrant.example.lan',
    domain_join_password => 'vagrant123',
    install_ipa_server   => true,
    ip_address           => '192.168.44.36',
    enable_ip_address    => true,
    enable_hostname      => true,
    manage_host_entry    => true,
    install_epel         => true,
    ipa_master_fqdn      => 'ipa-server-1.vagrant.example.lan',
}

Adding a client:

class {'::easy_ipa':
ipa_role             => 'client',
domain               => 'vagrant.example.lan',
domain_join_password => 'vagrant123',
install_epel         => true,
ipa_master_fqdn      => 'ipa-server-1.vagrant.example.lan',
}

Mandatory Parameters

domain

Mandatory. The name of the IPA domain to create or join.

ipa_role

Mandatory. What role the node will be. Options are 'master', 'replica', and 'client'.

admin_password

Mandatory if ipa_role is set as 'Master' or 'Replica'. Password which will be assigned to the IPA account named 'admin'.

directory_services_password

Mandatory if ipa_role is set as 'Master'. Password which will be passed into the ipa setup's parameter named "--ds-password".

Optional Parameters

autofs_package_name

Name of the autofs package to install if enabled.

configure_dns_server

If true, then the parameter '--setup-dns' is passed to the IPA server installer. Also, triggers the install of the required dns server packages.

configure_ntp

If false, then the parameter '--no-ntp' is passed to the IPA server installer.

custom_dns_forwarders

Each element in this array is prefixed with '--forwarder ' and passed to the IPA server installer.

domain_join_principal

The principal (usually username) used to join a client or replica to the IPA domain.

domain_join_password

The password for the domain_join_principal.

enable_hostname

If true, then the parameter '--hostname' is populated with the parameter 'ipa_server_fqdn' and passed to the IPA installer.

enable_ip_address

If true, then the parameter '--ip-address' is populated with the parameter 'ip_address' and passed to the IPA installer.

fixed_primary

If true, then the parameter '--fixed-primary' is passed to the IPA installer.

idstart

From the IPA man pages: "The starting user and group id number".

install_autofs

If true, then the autofs packages are installed.

install_epel

If true, then the epel repo is installed. The epel repo is usually required for sssd packages.

install_kstart

If true, then the kstart packages are installed.

install_ldaputils

If true, then the ldaputils packages are installed.

install_sssdtools

If true, then the sssdtools packages are installed.

ipa_client_package_name

Name of the IPA client package.

ipa_server_package_name

Name of the IPA server package.

install_ipa_client

If true, then the IPA client packages are installed if the parameter 'ipa_role' is set to 'client'.

install_ipa_server

If true, then the IPA server packages are installed if the parameter 'ipa_role' is not set to 'client'.

install_sssd

If true, then the sssd packages are installed.

ip_address

IP address to pass to the IPA installer.

ipa_server_fqdn

Actual fqdn of the IPA server or client.

kstart_package_name

Name of the kstart package.

ldaputils_package_name

Name of the ldaputils package.

ipa_master_fqdn

FQDN of the server to use for a client or replica domain join.

manage_host_entry

If true, then a host entry is created using the parameters 'ipa_server_fqdn' and 'ip_address'.

mkhomedir

If true, then the parameter '--mkhomedir' is passed to the IPA client installer.

no_ui_redirect

If true, then the parameter '--no-ui-redirect' is passed to the IPA server installer.

The name of the IPA realm to create or join.

sssd_package_name

Name of the sssd package.

webui_disable_kerberos

If true, then /etc/httpd/conf.d/ipa.conf is written to exclude kerberos support for incoming requests whose HTTP_HOST variable match the parameter 'webio_proxy_external_fqdn'. This allows the IPA Web UI to work on a proxied port, while allowing IPA client access to function as normal.

webui_enable_proxy

If true, then httpd is configured to act as a reverse proxy for the IPA Web UI. This allows for the Web UI to be accessed from different ports and hostnames than the default.

webui_force_https

If true, then /etc/httpd/conf.d/ipa-rewrite.conf is modified to force all connections to https. This is necessary to allow the WebUI to be accessed behind a reverse proxy when using nonstandard ports.

webui_proxy_external_fqdn

The public or external FQDN used to access the IPA Web UI behind the reverse proxy.

webui_proxy_https_port

The HTTPS port to use for the reverse proxy. Cannot be 443.
