IPA Puppet module

Overview

Puppet module that can manage an IPA master, replicas and clients.

huit/puppet-ipa aims at the management and configuration of a complete IPA environment under Puppet control.

To start, an IPA master will be required as the beginning of the LDAP/Kerberos environment. IPA replicas can then be added for additional resiliancy.

The IPA primary master server will take a minimum of two Puppet runs to fully configure. This is because the ipa_adminhomedir, ipa_adminuidnumber and ipa_replicascheme facts are not available until the IPA primary master is installed and operational. These facts are necessary to automatically configure clients and replicas.

IPA replica servers will be automatically configured with a replication agreement on the IPA primary master server.

All Puppet nodes added as clients will automatically be added to the IPA domain through exported resources.

Multiple IPA domains are supported.

A cleanup parameter has been included to remove the IPA server or client packages from nodes.

Dependencies

The ability to use Exported resources and Stored Configuration enabled on the Puppet master.

puppetlabs/puppetlabs-firewall module.

puppetlabs/stdlib module.

Usage examples

Here are a few simple usage examples. If you don't want to put your passwords in the clear, then use hiera/gpg.

IPA master:

    node 'ipamaster.domain.name' {
      class { 'ipa':
        master  => true, # Only one master per Puppet master
        domain  => 'domain.name',
        realm   => 'DOMAIN.NAME',
        adminpw => 'somepasswd', # Cleartext example
        dspw    => hiera('some_passwd') # Using hiera
      }
    }

IPA replica:

    node 'ipareplica1.domain.name' {
      class { 'ipa':
        replica => true, # Multiple replicas can be setup.
        domain  => 'domain.name',
        realm   => 'DOMAIN.NAME',
        adminpw => 'somepasswd',
        dspw    => 'somepasswd',
        otp     => 'onetimepasswd'
      }
    }

Another IPA replica:

    node 'ipareplica2.domain.name' {
      class { 'ipa':
        replica => true,
        domain  => 'domain.name',
        realm   => 'DOMAIN.NAME',
        adminpw => hiera('some_passwd'),
        dspw    => hiera('some_passwd'), 
        otp     => hiera('one_time_passwd')
      }
    }

IPA client:

    node 'ipaclient.domain.name' {
      class { 'ipa':
        client      => true,
        domain      => 'domain.name',
        realm       => 'DOMAIN.NAME',
        loadbalance => true,
        ipaservers  => ['ipaloadbalanceddnsname.domain.name','ipamaster.domain.name','ipareplica1.domain.name','ipareplica2.domain.name'],
        desc        => 'This is an IPA client', # This string will show up the the description attribute of the computer account.
        otp         => hiera('one_time_passwd')
      }
    }

Cleanup parameter:

    node 'ipawhatever.domain.name' {
      class { 'ipa':
        cleanup => true # Removes IPA completely. Mutually exclusive from master, replica and client parameters.
      }
    }

Limitations

IPA master and replicas require a RedHat family OS.

Client configuration does not work with Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 10.04
