[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 319 Make ipakrbprincipal objectclass optional

[Martin Kosek]

>From IPA 3.0, services have by default ipakrbprincipal objectclass which
allows ipakrbprincipalalias attribute used for case-insensitive principal
searches. However, as services created in previous version do not have
this objectclass (and attribute), they are not listed in service list
produced by service-find.

Treat the ipakrbprincipal as optional to avoid missing services in
service-find command. Add flag to service-mod command which can fill
ipakrbprincipalalias attribute when case-insensitive principal searches
for a 2.x service are required.

-----

I am still pondering about a right way to fill ipakrbprincipalalias used in for
IPA 3.0 case-insensitive searches, so far I implemented this command:

ipa service-mod PRINCIPAL --update-principal-alias

But I am thinking it may be a better approach to generalize it and do something
like that:

ipa service-mod PRINCIPAL --upgrade/--update

This command would do a general update of service entry to an up-to-date 3.0
style, in this case it could do 2 things:
* fill ipakrbprincipalalias
* fill ipakrbauthzdata (based on default value in IPA config).

Suggestions or comments welcome.
