These two scripts try to automatically obtain and install Let's Encrypt certs to FreeIPA web interface.

To use it, do this:

  • BACKUP /etc/httpd/alias to some safe place (it contains private keys!)
  • clone/unpack all scripts including "ca" subdirectory somewhere (/root/ipa-le is the default)
  • set WORKDIR variable to the directory you cloned the repository to in scripts setup-le.sh and renew-le.sh
  • set EMAIL variable in script renew-le.sh
  • run "yum install dnf" (a stock FreeIPA machine doesn't have dnf installed)
  • run "kinit your-admin-username" to get a Kerberos ticket (necessary to install the new certificates)
  • run setup-le.sh script once to prepare the machine. The script will:
    • install Let's Encrypt client package
    • install Let's Encrypt CA certificates into FreeIPA certificate store
    • requests new certificate for FreeIPA web interface
  • run renew-le.sh script once a day: it will renew the cert as necessary
    • run "crontab -e" as root
    • add the line "* * * * * /root/ipa-le/renew-le.sh"
