NAME
ipa-server-install - Configure an IPA server
SYNOPSIS
ipa-server-install [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
Configures the services needed by an IPA server. This includes setting up a Kerberos Key Distribution
Center (KDC) and a Kadmin daemon with an LDAP back-end, configuring Apache, configuring NTP and
optionally configuring and starting an LDAP-backed DNS server. By default a dogtag-based CA will be
configured to issue server certificates.
OPTIONS
BASIC OPTIONS
-r REALM_NAME, --realm=REALM_NAME
The Kerberos realm name for the IPA server. You will not be able to estabilish trust with Active
Directory unless the realm name is uppercased domain name.
-n DOMAIN_NAME, --domain=DOMAIN_NAME
Your DNS domain name
-p DM_PASSWORD, --ds-password=DM_PASSWORD
The password to be used by the Directory Server for the Directory Manager user
-a ADMIN_PASSWORD, --admin-password=ADMIN_PASSWORD
The password for the IPA admin user
--mkhomedir
Create home directories for users on their first login
--hostname=HOST_NAME
The fully-qualified DNS name of this server. If the hostname does not match system hostname, the
system hostname will be updated accordingly to prevent service failures.
--ip-address=IP_ADDRESS
The IP address of this server. If this address does not match the address the host resolves to and
--setup-dns is not selected the installation will fail. If the server hostname is not resolvable,
a record for the hostname and IP_ADDRESS is added to /etc/hosts. This this option can be used
multiple times to specify more IP addresses of the server (e.g. multihomed and/or dualstacked
server).
-N, --no-ntp
Do not configure NTP
--idstart=IDSTART
The starting user and group id number (default random)
--idmax=IDMAX
The maximum user and group id number (default: idstart+199999). If set to zero, the default value
will be used.
--no_hbac_allow
Don't install allow_all HBAC rule. This rule lets any user from any host access any service on any
other host. It is expected that users will remove this rule before moving to production.
--ignore-topology-disconnect
Ignore errors reported when IPA server uninstall would lead to disconnected topology. This option
can be used only when domain level is 1 or more.
--no-ui-redirect
Do not automatically redirect to the Web UI.
--ssh-trust-dns
Configure OpenSSH client to trust DNS SSHFP records.
--no-ssh
Do not configure OpenSSH client.
--no-sshd
Do not configure OpenSSH server.
-d, --debug
Enable debug logging when more verbose output is needed
-U, --unattended
An unattended installation that will never prompt for user input
--dirsrv-config-file
The path to LDIF file that will be used to modify configuration of dse.ldif during installation of
the directory server instance
CERTIFICATE SYSTEM OPTIONS
--external-ca
Generate a CSR for the IPA CA certificate to be signed by an external CA.
--external-ca-type=TYPE
Type of the external CA. Possible values are "generic", "ms-cs". Default value is "generic". Use
"ms-cs" to include template name required by Microsoft Certificate Services (MS CS) in the
generated CSR.
--external-cert-file=FILE
File containing the IPA CA certificate and the external CA certificate chain. The file is accepted
in PEM and DER certificate and PKCS#7 certificate chain formats. This option may be used multiple
times.
--no-pkinit
Disables pkinit setup steps
--dirsrv-cert-file=FILE
File containing the Directory Server SSL certificate and private key. The files are accepted in
PEM and DER certificate, PKCS#7 certificate chain, PKCS#8 and raw private key and PKCS#12 formats.
This option may be used multiple times.
--http-cert-file=FILE
File containing the Apache Server SSL certificate and private key. The files are accepted in PEM
and DER certificate, PKCS#7 certificate chain, PKCS#8 and raw private key and PKCS#12 formats.
This option may be used multiple times.
--pkinit-cert-file=FILE
File containing the Kerberos KDC SSL certificate and private key. The files are accepted in PEM
and DER certificate, PKCS#7 certificate chain, PKCS#8 and raw private key and PKCS#12 formats.
This option may be used multiple times.
--dirsrv-pin=PIN
The password to unlock the Directory Server private key
--http-pin=PIN
The password to unlock the Apache Server private key
--pkinit-pin=PIN
The password to unlock the Kerberos KDC private key
--dirsrv-cert-name=NAME
Name of the Directory Server SSL certificate to install
--http-cert-name=NAME
Name of the Apache Server SSL certificate to install
--pkinit-cert-name=NAME
Name of the Kerberos KDC SSL certificate to install
--ca-cert-file=FILE
File containing the CA certificate of the CA which issued the Directory Server, Apache Server and
Kerberos KDC certificates. The file is accepted in PEM and DER certificate and PKCS#7 certificate
chain formats. This option may be used multiple times. Use this option if the CA certificate is
not present in the certificate files.
--subject=SUBJECT
The certificate subject base (default O=REALM.NAME)
--ca-signing-algorithm=ALGORITHM
Signing algorithm of the IPA CA certificate. Possible values are SHA1withRSA, SHA256withRSA,
SHA512withRSA. Default value is SHA256withRSA. Use this option with --external-ca if the external
CA does not support the default signing algorithm.
DNS OPTIONS
--setup-dns
Generate a DNS zone if it does not exist already and configure the DNS server. This option
requires that you either specify at least one DNS forwarder through the --forwarder option or use
the --no-forwarders option.
Note that you can set up a DNS at any time after the initial IPA server install by running ipa-
dns-install (see ipa-dns-install(1)).
--forwarder=IP_ADDRESS
Add a DNS forwarder to the DNS configuration. You can use this option multiple times to specify
more forwarders, but at least one must be provided, unless the --no-forwarders option is
specified.
--no-forwarders
Do not add any DNS forwarders. Root DNS servers will be used instead.
--auto-forwarders
Add DNS forwarders configured in /etc/resolv.conf to the list of forwarders used by IPA DNS.
--reverse-zone=REVERSE_ZONE
The reverse DNS zone to use. This option can be used multiple times to specify multiple reverse
zones.
--no-reverse
Do not create reverse DNS zone
--auto-reverse
Try to resolve reverse records and reverse zones for server IP addresses and if neither is
resolvable creates these reverse zones.
--zonemgr
The e-mail address of the DNS zone manager. Defaults to hostmaster@DOMAIN
--no-host-dns
Do not use DNS for hostname lookup during installation
--no-dns-sshfp
Do not automatically create DNS SSHFP records.
--no-dnssec-validation
Disable DNSSEC validation on this server.
--allow-zone-overlap
Allow creatin of (reverse) zone even if the zone is already resolvable. Using this option is
discouraged as it result in later problems with domain name resolution.
UNINSTALL OPTIONS
--uninstall
Uninstall an existing IPA installation
-U, --unattended
An unattended uninstallation that will never prompt for user input
DEPRECATED OPTIONS
-P MASTER_PASSWORD, --master-password=MASTER_PASSWORD
The kerberos master password (normally autogenerated).
EXIT STATUS
0 if the (un)installation was successful
1 if an error occurred
