Query and transfer ACLs for DNS zones

2012-02-24T08:40:43+00:00

Provide a way to specify BIND allow-query and allow-transfer ACLs
for DNS zones.

IMPORTANT: new bind-dyndb-ldap adds a zone transfer ability. To
avoid zone information leaks to unintended places, allow-transfer
ACL for every zone is by default set to none and has to be
explicitly enabled by an Administrator. This is done both for new
DNS zones and old DNS zones during RPM update via new DNS upgrade
plugin.

Make sure memberof is in replication attribute exclusion list.

A previous bug caused this attribute to not be added which would lead
to unnecessary replication. This runs as an updater plugin.

Add plugin framework to LDAP updates.

2011-11-23T04:57:10+00:00

There are two reasons for the plugin framework:
1. To provide a way of doing manual/complex LDAP changes without having
   to keep extending ldapupdate.py (like we did with managed entries).
2. Allows for better control of restarts.

There are two types of plugins, preop and postop. A preop plugin runs
before any file-based updates are loaded. A postop plugin runs after
all file-based updates are applied.

A preop plugin may update LDAP directly or craft update entries to be
applied with the file-based updates.

Either a preop or postop plugin may attempt to restart the dirsrv instance.
The instance is only restartable if ipa-ldap-updater is being executed
as root. A warning is printed if a restart is requested for a non-root
user.

Plugins are not executed by default. This is so we can use ldapupdate
to apply simple updates in commands like ipa-nis-manage.
