Add some additional error checking

That problem was fixed in changeset 634

I did find a few places we weren't doing go error handling so I've patched
those.

Ideally a user will never see a python back trace.

QA Verified on May 29, 2008 (Yi)

Build used: May 29, 2008 (i386)


Test as below:
1> yum install ipa-server
2> run test above:
ipaserver[05/29/08 08:25] ipa-replica-prepare foo.com
The replica must be created on the primary IPA server.
