This is a WIP by dros@netapp.com - please let me finish before changing/commenting).
This document describes using NFSv4 with FreeIPA.
Historically, setting up a secure NFSv4 export (or even a client) was challenging, requiring the setup of a Kerberos realm and possibly an LDAP server. FreeIPA provides a packaged service of both Kerberos 5 and LDAP with the purpose of making this process much less painful.
These instructions are for Fedora 15. Other distros will require similar setup - the key differences will be a package installation tool other than yum(1), and a different config file layout.
Disclaimer about the testing environment
This example uses a private network (192.168.56.0/24) with a fake DNS realm (example.fake). For simplicity, this domain only has one server (server.example.fake) and one client (client1.example.fake).
Notes
- This example is running on a NAT'd private network, so I just turned off the firewall on the server! You probably shouldn't do that! You'll need to allow traffic on:
- port 53 for named
- port 88 for kerberos
- port 389 for ldap
- XXX MORE!! (ipa web interface, etc?)
XXX maybe just add firewall config to instructions?
- For the following example, I'm logged in as root on both the client and server. Either login as root or prepend "sudo " to each command.
Configure DNS realm
You might not need to do this.
If you're just setting up a client of FreeIPA, you can skip this section entirely.
If you already have a name server running for your domain:
- make sure the full DNS names and reverse mappings for server(s) and client(s) are in DNS.
[root@client1 ~]# nslookup server.example.fake Server: 192.168.56.20 Address: 192.168.56.20#53 Name: server.example.fake Address: 192.168.56.20 [root@client1 ~]# nslookup 192.168.56.20 Server: 192.168.56.20 Address: 192.168.56.20#53 20.56.168.192.in-addr.arpa name = server.example.fake. [root@client1 ~]# nslookup client1.example.fake Server: 192.168.56.20 Address: 192.168.56.20#53 Name: client1.example.fake Address: 192.168.56.40 [root@client1 ~]# nslookup 192.168.56.40 Server: 192.168.56.20 Address: 192.168.56.20#53 40.56.168.192.in-addr.arpa name = client1.example.fake.
- add the service entries for FreeIPA auto discovery. They are of the form:
; DNS auto discovery of services _ldap._tcp SRV 10 10 389 server.example.fake. _kerberos._udp SRV 10 10 88 server.example.fake. _kerberos._tcp SRV 10 10 88 server.example.fake.
If you are setting up a fake domain for testing, follow these instructions:
Create a fake DNS realm for testing
Install and configure the FreeIPA server
Install and configure the FreeIPA software on the server (server.example.fake).
Install the FreeIPA server and admintools package
This step fetches and installs FreeIPA and it's dependencies. It will install around 100 packages, depending on what you already have installed.
[root@server ~]# yum install freeipa-server freeipa-admintools
Configure FreeIPA server
Run the ipa-server-install program. This takes a while.
All of the default answers should work if DNS hostnames and services are set up correctly and the full domain name is returned by hostname(1).
[root@server ~]# ipa-server-install The log file for this installation can be found in /var/log/ipaserver-install.log ============================================================================== This program will set up the FreeIPA Server. This includes: * Configure the Network Time Daemon (ntpd) * Create and configure an instance of Directory Server * Create and configure a Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) * Configure Apache (httpd) To accept the default shown in brackets, press the Enter key. Enter the fully qualified domain name of the computer on which you're setting up server software. Using the form <hostname>.<domainname> Example: master.example.com. Server host name [server.example.fake]: The domain name has been calculated based on the host name. Please confirm the domain name [example.fake]: The IPA Master Server will be configured with Hostname: server.example.fake IP address: 192.168.56.20 Domain name: example.fake The kerberos protocol requires a Realm name to be defined. This is typically the domain name converted to uppercase. Please provide a realm name [EXAMPLE.FAKE]: Certain directory server operations require an administrative user. This user is referred to as the Directory Manager and has full access to the Directory for system management tasks and will be added to the instance of directory server created for IPA. The password must be at least 8 characters long. Directory Manager password: Password (confirm): The IPA server requires an administrative user, named 'admin'. This user is a regular system account used for IPA server administration. IPA admin password: Password (confirm): The following operations may take some minutes to complete.

Setting the certificate subject base restarting certificate server Applying LDAP updates Restarting the directory server Restarting the KDC Restarting the web server Sample zone file for bind has been created in /tmp/sample.zone.I_fDwT.db ============================================================================== Setup complete Next steps: 1. You must make sure these network ports are open: TCP Ports: * 80, 443: HTTP/HTTPS * 389, 636: LDAP/LDAPS * 88, 464: kerberos UDP Ports: * 88, 464: kerberos * 123: ntp 2. You can now obtain a kerberos ticket using the command: 'kinit admin' This ticket will allow you to use the IPA tools (e.g., ipa user-add) and the web user interface. Be sure to back up the CA certificate stored in /root/cacert.p12 This file is required to create replicas. The password for this file is the Directory Manager password
Install and configure FreeIPA client(s)
Install the freeipa-client package on each machine (besides the FreeIPA server) that want to participate in the FreeIPA domain.
Install the FreeIPA client package
This step fetches just the client-side software needed to connect to a FreeIPA server.
[root@client1 ~]# yum install freeipa-client ...
Configure the FreeIPA client package (OOPS!)
Again, if DNS is setup correctly and hostname returns the full DNS name, the default answers should work.
You want to use "admin" (the administrator user you created when configuring the FreeIPA server) as the enrollment principal.
Oh no! Currently, Fedora 15 gives me this problem:
[root@client1 ~]# ipa-client-install Discovery was successful! Hostname: client1.example.fake Realm: EXAMPLE.FAKE DNS Domain: example.fake IPA Server: server.example.fake BaseDN: dc=example,dc=fake Continue to configure the system with these values? [no]: yes Enrollment principal: admin Password for admin@EXAMPLE.FAKE: Joining realm failed because of failing XML-RPC request. This error may be caused by incompatible server/client major versions.
This problem is easily worked around, but you may not need to - I'm sure this will be fixed soon.
Configure the FreeIPA client package (The Workaround)
The problem and workaround are described here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/freeipa-users/2011-July/msg00029.html
Get credentials and add the host to FreeIPA
Both of these commands should be run on the *server*.
First, get admin credentials. If you are configuring multiple clients, this only needs to be run the first time.
[root@server ~]# kinit admin Password for admin@EXAMPLE.FAKE:
Now that you have credentials, you can add the (client) host to FreeIPA.
[root@server ~]# ipa host-add client1.example.fake --------------------------------- Added host "client1.example.fake" --------------------------------- Host name: client1.example.fake Principal name: host/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE Managed by: client1.example.fake
(Force) Configure FreeIPA client
Back on the client now. Run ipa-client-install again, but this time use the --force flag:
[root@client1 ~]# ipa-client-install --force Discovery was successful! Hostname: client1.example.fake Realm: EXAMPLE.FAKE DNS Domain: example.fake IPA Server: server.example.fake BaseDN: dc=example,dc=fake Continue to configure the system with these values? [no]: yes Enrollment principal: admin Password for admin@EXAMPLE.FAKE: Joining realm failed because of failing XML-RPC request. This error may be caused by incompatible server/client major versions. Use ipa-getkeytab to obtain a host principal for this server. Created /etc/ipa/default.conf Configured /etc/sssd/sssd.conf Configured /etc/krb5.conf for IPA realm EXAMPLE.FAKE Failed to configure automatic startup of the NSCD daemon SSSD enabled nss_ldap is not able to use DNS discovery! Changing configuration to use hardcoded server name: server.example.fake Kerberos 5 enabled NTP enabled Client configuration complete.
Manually fetch the keytab entry for the client
Still on the client, the last step is to fetch the keytab entry that ipa-client-install(1) wasn't able to get.
To do this, you'll need to authenticate as admin again (but this time on the client):
[root@client1 ~]# kinit admin Password for admin@EXAMPLE.FAKE:
Now run ipa-getkeytab:
[root@client1 ~]# ipa-getkeytab -s server.example.fake -p host/client1.example.fake -k /etc/krb5.keytab Keytab successfully retrieved and stored in: /etc/krb5.keytab
Now, FreeIPA should be setup on the client.
Add FreeIPA NFS service for each host
The next step is to setup kerberos principals for the NFS service on each host - the server and the client(s).
Add FreeIPA NFS service for server
[root@server ~]# ipa service-add nfs/server.example.fake ---------------------------------------------------- Added service "nfs/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE" ---------------------------------------------------- Principal: nfs/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE Managed by: server.example.fake
Add FreeIPA NFS service for client(s)
[root@server ~]# ipa service-add nfs/client1.example.fake ----------------------------------------------------- Added service "nfs/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE" ----------------------------------------------------- Principal: nfs/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE Managed by: client1.example.fake
Import FreeIPA NFS service tickets on the server
Again, we have to fetch a keytab entry. This time, it's for the nfs service of the local host.
According to this, we need to specify the enc type "des-cbc-crc".
[root@server ~]# ipa-getkeytab -s server.example.fake -e des-cbc-crc -p nfs/server.example.fake -k /etc/krb5.keytab Keytab successfully retrieved and stored in: /etc/krb5.keytab
You can check to see what's in the keytab like this:
[root@server ~]# klist -ke /etc/krb5.keytab Keytab name: WRFILE:/etc/krb5.keytab KVNO Principal ---- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6 nfs/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (des-cbc-crc) 4 host/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96) 4 host/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96) 4 host/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (des3-cbc-sha1) 4 host/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (arcfour-hmac) 4 host/server.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (des-cbc-crc)
Import FreeIPA NFS service tickets on the client(s)
[root@client1 ~]# ipa-getkeytab -s server.example.fake -p nfs/client1.example.fake -k /etc/krb5.keytab Keytab successfully retrieved and stored in: /etc/krb5.keytab
And here's what /etc/krb5.kettab has in it:
[root@client1 ~]# klist -ke /etc/krb5.keytab Keytab name: WRFILE:/etc/krb5.keytab KVNO Principal ---- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6 nfs/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (des-cbc-crc) 3 host/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (aes256-cts-hmac-sha1-96) 3 host/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (aes128-cts-hmac-sha1-96) 3 host/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (des3-cbc-sha1) 3 host/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (arcfour-hmac) 3 host/client1.example.fake@EXAMPLE.FAKE (des-cbc-crc)
Turn on "Secure NFS" on both client(s) and server
This turns on NFS secure mounts and enables rpc.gssd and rpc.svcgssd.
Edit these lines in file "/etc/sysconfig/nfs":
# Set to turn on Secure NFS mounts. SECURE_NFS="yes" # Optional arguments passed to rpc.gssd. See rpc.gssd(8) RPCGSSDARGS="-vvv" # Optional arguments passed to rpc.svcgssd. See rpc.svcgssd(8) RPCSVCGSSDARGS="-vvv"
The -vvv flags are for better debugging output.
To pick up the changes, you must restart nfs services:
[root@client1 ~]# service nfs restart Restarting nfs (via systemctl): [ OK ] [root@client1 ~]# service rpcgssd restart Restarting rpcgssd (via systemctl): [ OK ] [root@client1 ~]# service rpcsvcgssd restart Restarting rpcsvcgssd (via systemctl): [ OK ]
This must be run on both clients and servers.
Add full entry for the local host in /etc/hosts
NFS util program 'rpc.gssd' (XXX ???) requires that the full dns name of the host be in /etc/hosts. The full DNS name must be the only entry on that line.
On the server:
[root@server ~]# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 192.168.56.20 server.example.fake
This must be done on the client(s) as well:
[root@client1 ~]# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 192.168.56.40 client1.example.fake
Set up /etc/exports on the server
Edit file "/etc/exports":
[root@server ~]# cat /etc/exports /export gss/krb5(rw,fsid=0,insecure,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash) [root@server ~]# exportfs -av exportfs: scandir /etc/exports.d: No such file or directory exporting gss/krb5:/export
restart nfs service:
[root@server ~]# service nfs restart Restarting nfs (via systemctl): [ OK ]
Allow Kerberos to use "weak crypto"
To use the des key kerberos must be told to allow "weak" crypto. Newer kernels + nfsutils allow the use of AES, etc.
XXX look in to why fedora 15 is like this
Edit file '/etc/krb5.conf':
In section "libdefaults", add the line:
allow_weak_crypto = true
Mount the filesystem
The moment of truth!
If you run in to problems see ProblemsMountingNFS.
[root@client1 ~]# mount -v -t nfs4 -o sec=krb5 server.example.fake:/ /mnt mount.nfs4: timeout set for Tue Jul 19 22:36:46 2011 mount.nfs4: trying text-based options 'sec=krb5,addr=192.168.56.20,clientaddr=192.168.56.40' server.example.fake:/ on /mnt type nfs4 (rw,sec=krb5)
now test it as root
[root@client1 ~]# echo "test" > /mnt/example.com [root@client1 ~]# cat /mnt/example.com test
Test the NFS mount as another user
This section just covers testing the NFS mount with other users. I get a little verbose here describing how to add users in the FreeIPA system.
Add another user
First, we need to add another user to FreeIPA.
This must be run with credentials. (XXX link)
On the *server*, run:
[root@server ~]# ipa user-add someguy First name: guy Last name: someone -------------------- Added user "someguy" -------------------- User login: someguy First name: guy Last name: someone Full name: guy someone Display name: guy someone Initials: gs Home directory: /home/someguy GECOS field: guy someone Login shell: /bin/sh Kerberos principal: someguy@EXAMPLE.FAKE UID: 25400004
Now set a temporary password for the user. The first time the user logs in, they must change it to something new.
[root@server ~]# ipa passwd someguy Password: Enter Password again to verify: ------------------------------------------- Changed password for "someguy@EXAMPLE.FAKE" -------------------------------------------
Test NFS on client
Now there is a new user the client(s)!
[root@client1 ~]# su someguy sh-4.2$ id uid=25400004(someguy) gid=25400004(someguy) groups=25400004(someguy),25400001(ipausers) context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
Authenticate as the user:
sh-4.2$ kinit Password for someguy@EXAMPLE.FAKE: Password expired. You must change it now. Enter new password: Enter it again:
Now test nfs:
sh-4.2$ echo bar > /mnt/foo sh-4.2$ cat /mnt/foo bar sh-4.2$ ls -l /mnt total 12 -rw-r--r--. 1 nobody nobody 4 Jul 19 17:22 bar -rw-r--r--. 1 nobody nobody 5 Jul 19 22:35 example.com -rw-r--r--. 1 someguy someguy 4 Jul 19 22:44 foo
