Found while running the policy matrix and NAT/WAN scenario in VMs:
- ansipa-enforce-policies.sh and the dev_security-scan generated script called
`hostname -f`, but the hostname binary (inetutils) is not installed on a
minimal Arch system, so the enforcer aborted with "hostname: command not
found" on every run. Add an ansipa_fqdn() helper (hostnamectl / getent /
/etc/hostname / kernel-hostname fallback chain) and use it; inline the same
fallback in the standalone scan script.
- Fix two stacked bugs that meant CheckMK push mode — the only monitoring
transport that works when a client is behind NAT — never functioned:
* ansipa-checkmk-setup.sh referenced IPA_ADMIN_PASS in the DONE_FLAG
early-exit path, but that variable was assigned only afterwards, so every
rerun kinit'd with an empty password, failed silently, and skipped the
push-mode request writer. Resolve config before the early exit.
* _write_push_requests parsed `ipa hostgroup-show dev_mon_base` members with
awk that did `next` on the "Member hosts:" line — but ipa prints members on
that same line, so the only line with hostnames was discarded and no push
request was ever written. Rewrite the awk to capture the label line's value
plus wrapped continuation lines. Verified end-to-end: requests are written
and CheckMK flips the host to cmk_agent_connection=push-agent.

Found while bringing up the FreeIPA+CheckMK+Keycloak stack in a VM:
- Pin volume and network names (name:) so compose and the cgroup-v2 run.sh
wrapper share the same objects. Compose otherwise prefixes the project name
(image_cmk-creds, image_ipa-net), so the run.sh-started freeipa container
mounted a different cmk-creds volume than the compose-started checkmk wrote
to — the automation secret never reached IPA and the dev_mon_* integration
retried forever. run.sh also now labels the network it creates so compose
adopts it instead of erroring "exists but not created by compose".
- run.sh: mount cmk-creds into freeipa and include checkmk in the "all" target;
both were missing, so the CheckMK path was never wired up via run.sh.
- Fix both healthchecks: Keycloak has no curl/wget and serves /health on the
management port 9000 only when KC_HEALTH_ENABLED=true, so the old curl probe
left it permanently unhealthy — use a bash /dev/tcp probe against 9000.
CheckMK's /api/1.0/version needs auth (401), so probe the login page instead.
- Advertise a client-routable CheckMK URL (CMK_ADVERTISED_URL) in the
dev_mon_base description instead of the container-internal 172.30.0.12, which
enrolled clients cannot reach; falls back to the internal URL when unset.

Adds full CheckMK CE 2.3 monitoring integration to the ansipa policy
enforcement system. Monitoring is group-driven — adding a host to an
IPA hostgroup installs the relevant agent checks automatically.
New monitoring groups:
dev_mon_base — install check-mk-agent, register host in CMK;
packages check + built-in CPU/RAM/disk/uptime
dev_mon_malware — ClamAV scan results from dev_security-scan log
dev_mon_timeshift — Timeshift snapshot age (WARN >5d, CRIT >10d)
dev_mon_power — CPU package TDP via Intel RAPL or lm-sensors
usr_mon_logins — SSH login attempts (success/failed/invalid-user)
Key implementation details:
- ansipa-checkmk-setup.sh: one-time folder/group creation on FreeIPA
container; reads automation secret from shared cmk-creds volume;
stores credentials in IPA dev_mon_base description for clients
- ansipa-checkmk.service: starts after IPA first-boot, retries until
both IPA and CheckMK are ready
- docker-compose.yml: CheckMK container adds port 8000 (agent receiver
for push mode); command override writes automation.secret to shared
volume, patches cookie_auth.conf for API access, and polls
/cmk-creds/push-mode-*.req to configure push-agent hosts in hosts.mk
- ansipa-enforce-policies.sh: local check scripts for all 5 groups;
cmk-agent-ctl registration + auto push timer when push mode is active
- CheckMK REST API path corrected to /cmk/check_mk/api/1.0/ (not
/cmk/api/1.0/ which returns 404 in 2.3)
- .gitignore added to prevent accidental commit of .env test creds
