This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly geared currently towards command-line tools. A brief overview: config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses dnsclient to try to detect this information first and will fall back to /etc/ipa/ipa.conf if that fails. dnsclient.py - find IPA information via DNS ipautil.py - helper functions radius_util.py - helper functions for Radius entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class (but don't add anything currently). ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
