Hello,
I updated the design of the Time-Based HBAC Policies according to
the
discussion we led here earlier. Please check the design page
http://www.freeipa.org/page/V4/Time-Based_Account_Policies. The
biggest
changes are in the Implementation and Feature Management sections. I
also added a short How to Use section.
1) Please use the 'ipa' prefix for new attributes: memberTimeRule ->
ipaMemberTimeRule
2) Source hosts are deprecated and thus should be removed from
ipaHBACRuleV2.
3) Since time rules are defined by memberTimeRule, accessTime should
be removed from ipaHBACRuleV2.
ad 2) 3)
Because backward compatibility, ipaHBACRuleV2 must contain all
attributes from ipaHBACRule as MAY
Not true.
With current approach, when timerule is added to HBAC, we just change
objectclass from 'ipahbacrule' to 'ipahbacrulev2' so we keep all
attributes that was defined in older HBAC. Removing any attrs from
ipaHBACRuleV2 can cause schema violation.
Which is perfectly fine.
I'm not sure if want to handle this in code (removing deprecated
attributes from HBAC entry when timerule is added)
We don't have to do anything. If any of the deprecated attributes are
present when you change the object class (which they shouldn't
anyway), you'll get schema violation, otherwise it will work just fine.
I'm not sure if this is user friendly.
You can obviously catch the schema violation and provided a meaningful
error instead.
I don't really have a strong opinion here. My point was to be able to
hold all the attributes of the old type rule to be able to switch back
without losing anything. Then the new objectClass would obviously be
only used so that the older clients don't get the new HBAC rules that
have the restrictions they don't understand.
On the other hand, we do not want the mess from the older rules there
anyway if we want to use capabilities of the newer rule type so it might
be fine. But if user wants to create a new rule from an old one they
have to go through all the old attributes and manually remove their
values which may be a bother for them. Also, I believe that there's code
in SSSD that deals with some of these older attributes and this MIGHT
cause schema violation even on SSSD side if we want to work with older
HBAC rules in the same way as with the newer.
I realized that AccessTime is MUST for 'ipahbacrule', so when timerule
('ipahbacrulev2') is removed and somebody deleted accesstime we
have to
add it back.
It is MAY. The only MUST attribute is accessRuleType, but that is
deprecated as well and should be removed from ipaHBACRuleV2. We only
support allow rules, so when timerule is removed, that's the value you
set accessRuleType to.
Right, sorry.

4) The CLI sections needs more work, especially for non-standard
commands like timerule-test.
I definitely plan to look into the *test commands a bit more, I only
drafted it quick yesterday.
On the link below is a PROTOTYPE-patched FreeIPA that covers most
of the
CLI functionality (except for the creation of iCalendar strings from
options) for better illustration of the design.
https://github.com/stlaz/freeipa/tree/timerules_2
I will add FreeIPA people that recently had some say about this to
CC so
that we can get the discussion flowing.
