Hi Thu, Rob, and All,Have you made the necessary migration to FreeIPA. I too have migrated from an OpenLDAP to freeipa but have encountered some problems. After I have imported all the users from the OpenLDAP server to FreeIPA, I can't seem to get a Kerberos ticket. Is there any workaround on how I can make this migration work. All the entries have been successfully added and bind to the FreeIPA server works but doing kinit doesn't.
You're probably lacking at least kerberos keys. Did you set the krbprinicpalname on each entry?
In order to generate the kerberos keys you need a cleartext password which is why it isn't as simple as loading an LDIF. If you change the password of your users that should generate the keys assuming they have the appropriate object class (krbprincipalaux).
We are working on a mechanism where a user will be able to authenticate using their migrated password and this will generate the kerberos keys but it isn't quite finished yet.

Basically what you need to do is: - install freeIPA - get an ldif dump of your OpenLDAP server - remove any unneeded structural and configuration options from the ldif - convert this ldif to the IPA DIT - load the ldif You can see the DIT we use at http://freeipa.org/page/UsingRhdsWithIpa When converting to our DIT you'll also need to ensure that the user entries are set up properly. This means having: - the krbprincipalname attribute set to <uid>@<REALM> - update the objectclass list - set gidnumber to the ipausers group You'll end up with a bunch of users that will work with simple auth but don't have kerberos keys yet so kinit will fail. You'll need to create some mechanism where they authenticate using their user password in order to get kerberos keys. And of course, do this on a test system first to make sure I haven't missed something :-) rob -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ Freeipa-users mailing list [email protected] </mc/[email protected]> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------Importing contacts has never been easier. <http://us.rd.yahoo.com/SIG=11dea1p2c/**http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trueswitch.com%2Fyahoo-ph>Bring your friends over to Yahoo!
