Hi,

  I've encountered some authentication problems with my FreeIPA
installation, which I've traced to RA Agent certification auth problems.
I've done typical steps to verify certs in LDAP and hit a wall.
Please suggest further steps.

  My setup is 2 masters on Fedora 34:
freeipa-server-4.9.6-2.fc34.x86_64
pki-base-10.10.6-1.fc34.noarch

  Steps I've done:
First I noticed problems when enabling ACME:
$ ipa-acme-manage enable
Failed to authenticate to CA REST API
The ipa-acme-manage command failed.

This is caused by authentication failure (401 return code), which
I confirmed using curl:

$ curl -X POST https://kaitain.pipebreaker.pl:8443/acme/enable --cert 
/var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.pem --key /var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.key

I've made sure that /var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.pem is the same as in LDAP.
$ openssl x509 -in /var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.pem -noout -text | grep Serial
        Serial Number: 105 (0x69)

$ ldapsearch -o ldif_wrap=no -D "cn=directory manager" -W -b o=ipaca 
"(uid=ipara)" 
Enter LDAP Password: 
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <o=ipaca> with scope subtree
# filter: (uid=ipara)
# requesting: ALL
#

# ipara, people, ipaca
dn: uid=ipara,ou=people,o=ipaca
description: 2;105;CN=Certificate Authority,O=PIPEBREAKER.PL;CN=IPA 
RA,O=PIPEBREAKER.PL
userCertificate;binary::  <SNIPPED>
cn: ipara
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: cmsuser
usertype: agentType
sn: ipara
uid: ipara
userstate: 1

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1


Then SNIPPED portion is the same data as in /var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.pem.
This is the same certificate; serial number matches, too.

Certificate is NOT expired:
$ openssl x509 -in /var/lib/ipa/ra-agent.pem -noout -dates
notBefore=Jun 16 04:34:42 2021 GMT
notAfter=Jun  6 04:34:42 2023 GMT


  What should I do next to resolve this authentication issue?
