Hi,
I'm setting up an openvpn server and I'd like to use our already existing FreeIPA
CA to issue user keys/certs for openvpn's use. Since our OpenVPN box is a freeipa
client, I thought it'd be nice to use certmonger to issue and keep up to date these
certs.
Ergo, I've created a certificate profile:
pat@apex-freeipa ~$ ipa certprofile-show --all OpenVPNUserCert
dn: cn=OpenVPNUserCert,cn=certprofiles,cn=ca,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com
Profile ID: OpenVPNUserCert
Profile description: OpenVPN User Certificates
Store issued certificates: FALSE
objectclass: ipacertprofile, top
And also a CA acl. For experimentation (and working vs our test freeipa) I've left
this as wide open as I can:
[pat@apex-freeipa ~]$ ipa caacl-show --all OpenVPN_User_Certificate_ACL
dn:
ipaUniqueID=6dde33a6-7849-11e9-aa05-525400b52c7b,cn=caacls,cn=ca,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com
ACL name: OpenVPN_User_Certificate_ACL
Enabled: TRUE
CA category: all
Profile category: all
User category: all
Host category: all
Service category: all
ipauniqueid: 6dde33a6-7849-11e9-aa05-525400b52c7b
objectclass: ipaassociation, ipacaacl
Then, on my openvpn server, I ask for a cert for use for one of my users (myself, in this
case):
root@apex-openvpn:~# ipa-getcert request -f /etc/openvpn/client/pat.crt -k
/etc/openvpn/client/pat.key -r -N 'CN=pat,O=INT.APEXMW.COM' -K pat -g 4096
--profile OpenVPNUserCert
New signing request "20190603014016" added.
But, it fails due to an access err vs the 'userCertificate' attribute of my
account:
root@apex-openvpn:~# ipa-getcert list
(...snippy snip excess...)
Request ID '20190603014016':

If I look at the dirsrv log, here's the accesses I see for this request (trimmed off
the date/time to make the lines a _little_ shorter):

To begin with, I note that this session does a BIND with 'dn=""', right
at the beginning, it's essentially an anonymous bind, yah?
That operation near the end, here:
op=17 SRCH base="cn=caacls,cn=ca,dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com" scope=1
filter="(&(objectClass=ipaassociation)(objectClass=ipacaacl))"
seems like it might be kinda key. and indeed, if I attempt to run this by hand as an
anonymous bind, I get no results:
root@apex-freeipa slapd-INT-APEXMW-COM# ldapsearch -x -h localhost -b
dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com -s sub
"(|(objectClass=ipaassociation)(objectClass=ipacaacl))"

# filter: (|(objectClass=ipaassociation)(objectClass=ipacaacl))
# requesting: ALL
#
# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success
# numResponses: 1
It's only if I run this as an _authenticated_ bind, that I can find my ACL:
root@apex-freeipa slapd-INT-APEXMW-COM# ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager"
-W -h localhost -b dc=int,dc=apexmw,dc=com -s sub
"(&(objectClass=ipaassociation)(objectClass=ipacaacl))" cn

Is this (using certmonger to auto-issue signed certs/keys for my openvpn users) going to
be essentially impossible to do, here? Do I need to go a more traditional route of
creating a seperate keystore/certdb, issuing a CSR, and feeding that to FreeIPA to sign?
Any advice appreciated, and thanks in advance,
