The FreeIPA team would like to announce FreeIPA v4.0.4 bugfix release!
It can be downloaded from http://www.freeipa.org/page/Downloads. Builds for Fedora 21 are available in the official COPR repository.
Highlights in 4.0.4#
Enhancements#
Bug fixes#
Certmonger CAs are now set with correct path to ipa-submit which caused problems with new certificate submission
Directory Server again returns basic RootDSE attributes by default - namingContexts, supportedControl, supportedExtension, supportedLDAPVersion, supportedSASLMechanisms, vendorName, vendorVersion
“IPA OTP Last Token” plugin is now enabled also on upgraded FreeIPA servers before 4.0.0
Better error message is provided if cert-request command fails for certificates with SAN
CA certificate renewal script (ca_renewal_master) triggered by certmonger could fail
sudorule-add-runasuser command now works with external users
“IPA” CA is now properly selected for Web Service and Directory Service certificates
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 #freeipa channel on Freenode.
