novox/hq 04-ISSUES/146. The composed user list names an enrolment user for
every machine with a live token and nothing minted a credential for it, so the
composer left it out as a user with no password — and every enrolment since the
mesh moved to this bus was refused before the mesh heard of it. The comment
above the issuing code already said the account is created before the token is
handed over; now it is. Recorded rather than minted, because the token's secret
is the password.
And 'broker accounts', which composes the same list the declaration carries and
writes it to standard output. For genesis, where no declaration can reach the
machine running the bus because that machine is not yet a node. It says what it
composed; whoever is raising the machine places it. A control plane that wrote
the file itself would have to learn where the bus keeps its configuration and
how to make it reload, which is the module's knowledge.
novox/hq 04-ISSUES/146. The foundation made it by running openssl inside the
broker's image, which worked while the broker was one that carried it and
stopped the day the bus changed: the new one has a shell and no openssl, so
the step exited 127 and no mesh could be raised. No other image the bundle
names has it either, so there was nothing to substitute.
broker certificate --into <dir> writes the pair, --check is the step's verify.
Self-signed on purpose — a host pins this server's exact certificate (ADR
0004) and at genesis there is no authority to ask — and made once, because a
second certificate is one every host that pinned the first no longer believes.
The key is written before the certificate, so an interruption never leaves
something that looks finished.
