Rob you are awesome and I don't know what I would do without you. So I have two things going on obviously. Following your instructions it looks like the DM password has correctly been set. I cannot change the admin password as a test because I get the cert errors. I am going to retry setting dates back and requesting new certs again following some of the threads I have seen. Could you please just clarify two points? On my 4 servers all running as CAs do I only need to set the date back to prior to expired certs running ipa-getcert list or the earliest expired date when running getcert list? The getcert list shows certs that have been expired since June but the ipa-getcert shows more recent. Also, does it matter which servers I do first? Meaning should I set time back on my "master" CA first. This is the expiration output info from my master: [root@ipa2 ~]# ipa-getcert list | grep expires expires: 2016-08-26 16:41:24 UTC expires: 2016-08-26 16:41:23 UTC expires: 2016-08-26 16:41:24 UTC [root@ipa2 ~]# getcert list | grep expires expires: 2016-08-26 16:41:24 UTC expires: 2016-08-15 16:47:26 UTC expires: 2016-08-26 16:41:23 UTC expires: 2016-08-26 16:41:24 UTC expires: 2016-06-06 23:36:29 UTC expires: 2016-06-06 23:36:28 UTC expires: 2016-06-06 23:36:28 UTC expires: 2016-06-06 23:37:09 UTC

You must have missed a step when updating the DM password. As a goof I just tried it on my RHEL 6 install and it seems to work, this is what I did: # service dirsrv stop # /usr/bin/pwdhash password edit both /etc/dirsrv/slapd-REALM/dse.ldif and /etc/dirsrv/slapd-PKI-IPA/dse.ldif to set nsslapd-rootpw # service dirsrv start Check both of the new passwords: # ldapsearch -x -D "cn=directory manager" -W -s base -b "" "objectclass=*" # ldapsearch -h localhost -po 7389 -x -D "cn=directory manager" -W -s base -b "" "objectclass=*" Update internaldb value in /etc/pki-ca/password.conf with the new password. Update and test the admin user password: # ldappasswd -h localhost -ZZ -p 7389 -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -W -S uid=admin,ou=people,o=ipaca # ldapsearch -h localhost -ZZ -p 7389 -x -D "uid=admin,ou=people,o=ipaca" -W -b "" -s base Restart the CA # service pki-cad restart Note that things _still_ aren't going to work so hot with all the expired certs but if you go back in time you will at least have a chance of renewing things. rob
