SSSD Containers for CI

These containers and images are intended to be used in SSSD CI and they should not be used in production. However, you can use them during SSSD local testing and development.

Quick start

$ sudo dnf install -y podman podman-docker docker-compose
$ sudo systemctl enable --now podman.socket
$ sudo setsebool -P container_manage_cgroup true
$ cp env.example .env
$ sudo make up
$ sudo podman exec -it client /bin/bash

Note: once you get a console on the client container, you may want to bring SSSD online because it has been most probably started before the other services and therefore it went offline: pkill --signal SIGUSR2 sssd.

Usage

First, create an environment file that is consumed by docker-compose:

$ cp env.example .env

Then you can run the following make targets in order to start, stop and destroy the containers.

  • sudo make up reads docker-compose.yml and starts all services in containers
  • sudo make up-passkey reads docker-compose.yml and docker-compose.passkey.yml to add passkey support and start all services in containers
  • sudo make stop stops the containers, keeps theirs content
  • sudo make down destroys and removes the containers
  • sudo make update update images

You can gain console access once the containers are started, either through podman or ssh. For example:

$ sudo podman exec -it client /bin/bash
$ sudo podman exec -it -u ci client /bin/bash
$ sudo podman exec -it client /bin/tmux
$ ssh -l ci -i ./data/ssh-keys/ci.id_rsa 172.16.100.40
$ ssh -l root -i ./data/ssh-keys/root.id_rsa 172.16.100.40

See Available containers for container names, IP adresses and DNS names. See Host configuration to configure your system DNS resolver so you can use DNS names directly instead of using IP addresses in the ssh command.

Host configuration

You can trust sssd-ci self signed CA certificate and setup DNS forwarding on your local host in order to access provided services directly outside the containers (for example accessing IPA Web UI at https://master.ipa.test or perfoming an ldapsearch).

  • sudo make trust-ca configure your system to trust sssd-ci CA
  • sudo make setup-dns forward all *.test queries to sssd-ci DNS server. Note that this will disable systemd-resolved and enable dnsmasq in NetworkManager.
  • sudo make setup-dns-files append containers fully qualified hostnames to /etc/hosts so they can be resolved directly without DNS. You can use it instead of setup-dns on systems where it is not desired or possible to tinker with systemd-resolved or NetworkManager configuration.

Available tools

Please, view the packages ansible role to see the installed packages:

Out of the box use cases

The following use cases are supported out of the box:

  • sssd with single domain connected to LDAP
  • sssd with single domain connected to IPA
  • sssd with single domain connected to Samba DC via ad provider
  • sssd connected to IPA with one trusted Samba DC domain
  • sssd connected to multiple domains

Selecting container images tag

There are images available for multiple distributions. See the catalog for all available tags.

You can set the TAG environment variable to choose the tag the should be used when starting the containers. You can also set it in the .env file if you intend to use it for a longer time.

Most notable tags are:

  • latest - this is the latest Fedora stable compose
  • rawhide - this is the latest Fedora rawhide compose

We currently have full support for Fedora and CentOS Stream and a limited support for Debian and Ubuntu. The client is always created from the target distribution, but if any service is unavailable on that distribution (like samba-dc on CentOS Stream) it is created from fedora:latest instead.

Overriding images

There is also a development version to ci-client and ci-ipa images, named ci-client-devel and ci-ipa-devel. These images contains preinstalled development dependencies, which makes it unfortunately quite large. However, it is suitable for use when coding on SSSD. You can use it by overriding docker-compose values in docker-compose.override.yml file:

services:
  client:
    image: ${REGISTRY}/ci-client-devel:${TAG}
  ipa:
    image: ${REGISTRY}/ci-ipa-devel:${TAG}

Using real Active Directory instance

Active Directory does not run in containers so we have Samba DC container to mitigate this. However, there may be situations when we need to test against real Active Directory running on a Windows server. There is a virtual machine defined in Vagrantfile that can be instantiated via vagrant.

Name IP FQDN Netbios name Description
ad 172.16.200.10 dc.ad.test AD AD forest root

Preqrequisites

The following vagrant plugins are required:

  • vagrant-libvirt
  • winrm and winrm-elevated (these are built-in to the official Hashicorp package)

There are often compatibility issues and bugs when mixing packages provided by Linux distributions and non-packaged plugins that require difficult workarounds. We recommend to use vagrant from quay.io/sssd/vagrant:latest container instead to prevent any issues. You can define the following function in your .bashrc:

function vagrant {
  dir="${VAGRANT_HOME:-$HOME/.vagrant.d}"
  mkdir -p "$dir/"{boxes,data,tmp}

  podman run -it --rm \
    -e LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI \
    -v /var/run/libvirt/:/var/run/libvirt/ \
    -v "$dir/boxes:/vagrant/boxes" \
    -v "$dir/data:/vagrant/data" \
    -v "$dir/tmp:/vagrant/tmp" \
    -v $(realpath "${PWD}"):${PWD} \
    -w $(realpath "${PWD}") \
    --network host \
    --security-opt label=disable \
    quay.io/sssd/vagrant:latest \
      vagrant $@
}

Starting and stopping the virtual machine

$ cd ./src
$ vagrant up
$ vagrant halt
$ vagrant destroy

Creating IPA trust

First, start the CI containers with sudo make up, after that you can setup trust between ipa.test and ad.test.

$ sudo podman exec ipa /usr/bin/bash -c 'echo Secret123 | kinit admin && echo vagrant | ipa trust-add ad.test --admin Administrator --password'

Joining client into the ad.test domain

First, start the CI containers with sudo make up, after that you can enroll the client to ad.test domain.

sudo podman exec client /usr/bin/bash -c 'echo -e Administrator\nvagrant | realm join ad.test'

Advanced topics

Recreating certificates and ssh keys

The certificates are stored in data/certs and will expire in 2041, so the should be no need to regenerate them any time soon. There should be no need to regenerate ssh keys in data/sssh-keys either. However, you can do it by calling the following two scripts:

$ ./src/tools/gen-certs.sh
$ ./src/tools/gen-ssh-keys.sh

Building images

The images are build and published automatically in GitHub actions in the build workflow on each push and automatically every Sunday.

If you need to build them manually, you can do it by calling the build make target. It takes multiple environment variables:

  • BASE_IMAGE: base image that should be used, default is registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora:latest
  • TAG: tag of the result images, default is latest
  • UNAVAILABLE: space separated list of unavailable services, default is empty (all services are available). If multiple values are provided, you need to enclose them in quotation marks, e.g. "ipa ldap samba"

The following example builds the CentOS Stream 8 images:

$ sudo make build BASE_IMAGE=quay.io/centos/centos:stream8 TAG=centos-8 UNAVAILABLE=samba

The images are stored in local localhost/sssd image registry.

Publishing images

The images are automatically published on successful build of GitHub actions build workflow so there should be no need to do this manually. However, you can do it by calling the push make target. It takes multiple environment variables:

  • REGISTRY: target registry where the images will be pushed, required
  • TAG: tag of the local images in localhost/sssd that will be pushed, it is also used as the destination tag, required
  • EXTRA_TAGS: space separated list of additional tags for the image, default is empty (no additional tag), e.g. fedora-latest latest

Image layers

The images are build from multiple layers in order to safe space. The layers are:

  flowchart TD
    base-ground --> base-ldap
    base-ground --> base-client
    base-ground --> base-samba
    base-ground --> base-nfs
    base-ground --> base-kdc
    base-ground --> base-keycloak

    base-ldap --> base-ipa
