Description Dirk Wiesenthal univentionstaff 2017-02-28 12:37:38 CET 
When a computer changes its IP address (or more drastically, its hostname), the links in settings/portal_entry will not work.

The links are absolute for easy dumping and zero LDAP lookups in the listener.

Yet, the links have to be regenerated (but only the relevant values!)

in /usr/share/univention-portal/portal.json
"entries": [{..., "links": ["https://10.200.4.50/owncloud", "https://master50.dirk.singlemaster.intranet/owncloud"]}

If master50 decides to change his IP to 10.200.4.60, the first link needs to be exchanged. If the App happens to be installed on 2 computers, there may be 4 entries! The UDM hook may only touch 2 of them.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #42175 +++

There should be a graphical user interface to add links to the new portal site.

I added the possibility to make substring matches in the LdapReplace part of univention-system-setups net scripts. There, i added a template to modify objects of udm type settings/portal_entry if an ip address has changes
