RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jakub Hrozek 2014-09-03 20:23:31 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/2358

When you rebuild a host in a freeipa environment, the SSH key is regenerated and reuploaded to freeipa. However, this is cached in sssd on a workstation and is placed into known_hosts: It essentially means you are locked out of any host that you have rebuilt or rolled the ssh key on.

This patch (Discussed on the mailing list) corrects this behaviour, and allows an ssh host key to be expired and not inserted into the known hosts.

Comment 3 Kaushik Banerjee 2015-01-20 10:53:01 UTC 
1. After enrolling the ipa-client to ipa-server for the first time:

ssh admin@<client>
$ 

copy /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts to /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts_old


2. Now uninstall the client "ipa-client-install --uninstall -U"

3. Generate new ssh keys on the client
# ssh-keygen 
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_rsa): /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key already exists.
Overwrite (y/n)? y
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): 
Enter same passphrase again: 
Your identification has been saved in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.
Your public key has been saved in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key.pub.

4. Re-install ipa client

5. ssh to the client and check if /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts is updated.

ssh admin@<client>
$ 

# diff /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts_old /var/lib/sss/pubconf/known_hosts 
1,3c1,3
...
...
<output removed so as not to display the keys>


echo $?
# 1
