There is more files in /usr/ipa which are generated on installation. I.e. it's current limitation of IPA that it doesn't work with readonly /usr . This issue/RFE is tracked in https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2465 which had also RH bugzilla: bug 800546 (In reply to Petr Vobornik from comment #2) > There is more files in /usr/ipa which are generated on installation. Right. I'm aware of /usr/share/ipa/html/ca.crt /usr/share/ipa/html/configure.jar /usr/share/ipa/html/kerberosauth.xpi /usr/share/ipa/html/krb5.ini /usr/share/ipa/html/krb.con /usr/share/ipa/html/krb.js /usr/share/ipa/html/krbrealm.con /usr/share/ipa/html/preferences.html Upstream ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2465 Kerberos-specific configuration comes from commit e40c583b12ed3d0b1db62154b7b0b84eed44ed6e Author: Rob Crittenden <rcritten> Date: Mon Oct 29 12:00:48 2007 -0400 Create configuration for MIT Windows kerberos client and install into http://hostname/config so users can point their MIT client at the IPA server and automatically fetch the configuration. Most of that can be moved to /etc/ipa/html and symlinked in the same way we do with sssbrowser.html and unauthorized.html in install/html/Makefile.am. So this is doable with an ease. Thank you taking your time and submitting this request for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Unfortunately, this bug cannot be kept even as a stretch goal and was postponed to RHEL8. This BZ has been evaluated multiple times over the last several years and we assessed that it is a valuable request to keep in the backlog and address it at some point in future. Time showed that we did not have such capacity, nor have it now nor will have in the foreseeable future. In such a situation keeping it in the backlog is misleading and setting the wrong expectation that we will be able to address it. Unfortunately we will not. To reflect this we are closing this BZ. If you disagree with the decision please reopen or open a new support case and create a new BZ. However this does not guarantee that the request will not be closed during the triage as we are currently applying much more rigor to what we actually can accomplish in the foreseeable future. Contributions and collaboration in the upstream community and CentOS Stream is always welcome! Thank you for understanding Red Hat Enterprise Linux Identity Management Team |
