Updated by stroeder over 6 years ago

There were two servers setup:
aedir1.infra.opensuse.org: A writeable Æ-DIR provider
aedir2.infra.opensuse.org: A read-only Æ-DIR consumer

See https://aedir1.infra.opensuse.org/docs.html#sys-arch for understanding the different server roles.

You can reach the web services: https://aedir1.infra.opensuse.org

Note that only three so-called Æ Admin accounts were created for @stroeder, @cboltz and @tampakrap.

root access is available for three SSH keys added by @tampakrap.

Two zones were added:

  1. mail for adding mail aliases

  2. infra for infrastructure administration

Please read the docs.

The AE-DIR test servers are now integrated with themselves (pam_mkhomedir not yet used here).

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.

Added Karol as Æ-Admin in PoC.

Actions #9

Updated by stroeder about 5 years ago

The Æ-DIR test systems were migrated to run all the Python stuff with Python 3.6. Python 2 was removed.
Some more recent package versions were needed which I provide in my own home repos already installed.

Unfortunately on aedir1.infra.o.o I had one issue which I could not resolve for now:
python3-salt requires the legacy package python3-pycrypto which conflicts with some modules needed by Æ-DIR requiring python3-pycryptodome. As a work-around I had to remove salt for now which is not a good solution of course.

For WebSSO stuff, could you try using Ipsilon with it? Ipsilon is not specifically tied to FreeIPA (unlike other alternatives), and it's packaged for openSUSE now: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Pharaoh_Atem:SUSE_Ipsilon/ipsilon

Once I'm happy with the packaging, I'll submit it to security:idm and maintain it there. That project is required as a repo dependency though (since python3-lasso and a few other things are there...)

Ipsilon is rather dead upstream:

This ticket is solely about an Æ-DIR PoC installation. Feel free to help testing it.

But please add another ticket when suggesting/proposing/demanding anything about WebSSO.

Don't get me wrong: Of course I will help on Æ-DIR's side to help integrating a WebSSO solution once a decision is taken which that will be. But that's also a different story.

Those commits were merged only a few months ago. The pull request that those commits came from was merged 4 months ago: https://pagure.io/ipsilon/pull-request/313

It is not dead, but there hasn't been too much work needed lately. The big thing that happened recently was getting it working on Python 3. Nobody works on Ipsilon full-time, including myself. I'm the maintainer of the Ipsilon packages in Fedora and working on its packaging in openSUSE.
