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 Rob Crittenden 2012-11-21 16:51:34 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3271

python-crypto is not available in some distributions. We use Crypto.Cipher.ARC4 for AD trusts as trust is established with authentication blob encrypted with RC4.

A replacement will need to be written, one candidate being to extend the python-krbV to add a crypto interface.
Comment 1 Rob Crittenden 2012-11-21 16:54:21 UTC 
A very straightforward (read 2 or 3 lines) fix is to switch to use RC4 from M2Crypto.

For QE purposes, this would be a regression-only test. AD trust cannot be established if this is not working.
Comment 2 Rob Crittenden 2012-11-21 17:06:02 UTC 
Patch pushed upstream.

Comment 4 Martin Kosek 2012-12-19 17:20:25 UTC 
ipa-server-trust-ad Requires were fixed in ipa-3.0.0-17.el6. (python-crypto requirement was replaced with m2crypto requirement).
