SOAP for generating Preauth key??

[bonadio]

Hello

I would like to know if there is a SOAP call that can generate the Preauthkey for a domain, I know we can run zmprov> gdpak <domain>, but we would like to automate this process. I already tried to call a soap method GenerateDomainPreAuthKey but it returns
"Erro:unknown document: ns1:GenerateDomainPreAuthKey"

Thanks for any help

[SOLVED] Another PHP Preauth example

[acajaja]

I don't think you answered bonadio's question. To me, it doesn't seem that he/she is asking HOW to pre auth, rather they're asking how to generate a PREAUTH KEY for a given domain via a SOAP request so that they CAN pre auth.

I too would like to know the answer. Please be direct and concise.

The doc at Preauth - Zimbra :: Wiki DOES NOT answer the question. It simply says to run the zmprov command which I don't know how to do. I am using the ZCS NOT the desktop version and would like to ultimately set up an API for my company so we can integrate calendaring functionality into our site for our users.

I don't think it's possible yet.. it would be insecure either...

Index of /pub/zimbra/zimbra/trunk/branches/EDISON/ZimbraServer/docs
I've checked preAuth.txt and the soap files, there's no hint for it. It is also not possible to generate it with the webinterface, so i also cannot fetch soap information this way...

But may'be a PHP-shell interface can help you?
gunthor's zimbraControl at gunthor - GitHub

it's not a complete package, but the shell-part works fine!

All you had to do was wait for your post to be approved.

That artictle tells you exactly what to do

su - zimbra
zmprov gdpak <domain_name>

This is using zmprov.

Is there a way to do it via SOAP?

I have added the --debug flag to this call and see the following, but unsure what the key should be in the zimbraPreAuthKeyNode, or is it just generating it for me, and not possible to do via SOAP?

Here is the example (only snipping out pertinant parts)

zmprov --debug gdpak jeffzz798.com

<ModifyDomainRequest xmlns="urn:zimbraAdmin">
<id>4a693890-7643-40d9-abe2-3d310ff02409</id>
<a n="zimbraPreAuthKey">513e2eff591e343dd6e8397c7237c d6618f51b702f5a4c46fe08d1730114271e</a>
</ModifyDomainRequest>


preAuthKey: 513e2eff591e343dd6e8397c7237cd6618f51b702f5a4c46fe 08d1730114271e

Anyone done this successfully?

I am also eager to know this answer. Especially how to solve unknown-document issue, which constantly happens when using the soap api!

I have never done this before.
But maybe you can generate zimbraPreAuthKey for a domain like this:

try {
java.security.SecureRandom random = java.security.SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG") ;
byte[] key = new byte[32];
random.nextBytes(key);
return new String(org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex.encodeH ex(key));
} catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
throw ServiceException.FAILURE("unable to initialize SecureRandom", e);
}

And you send

<ModifyDomainRequest xmlns="urn:zimbraAdmin">
<id>4a693890-7643-40d9-abe2-3d310ff02409</id>
<a n="zimbraPreAuthKey">513e2eff591e343dd6e8397c723 7c d6618f51b702f5a4c46fe08d1730114271e</a>
</ModifyDomainRequest>

That seems all "zmprov gdpak" do for you inside.

I hope this might help you.
