Description bebopt 2012-02-20 12:38:21 UTC 
If try to lunch:

ipa-client-install --server rvvmipa01cl.collaudo.rve --domain collaudo.rve

with /etc/resolv.conf configurated correctly and dns server is Active Directory, the ipa-clent-install try to get CA from DNS server instead of ipa-server


Additional info:

rvvmipa01cl  :  IPA_server on RHEL 6.2
rvvmdcl02cw  :  ActiveDirectory

Comment 3 Rob Crittenden 2012-02-20 14:25:11 UTC 
I believe this will be fixed in RHEL 5.8 by the rebase to upstream FreeIPA 2.1.3.
Comment 4 bebopt 2012-02-20 14:30:14 UTC 
Does not exist a workaround for 5.7?
Comment 5 Rob Crittenden 2012-02-20 21:00:57 UTC 
Other than pointing to another DNS server that isn't serving the AD SRV records, no.
Comment 6 bebopt 2012-02-21 10:46:08 UTC 
i haven't others DNS server.

My workaround is: 
 - Remove any entry of /etc/resolv.conf
 - lunch installation with paramenter --server --domain --hostname
 - Repopulate the /etc/resolv.conf
Comment 7 Rob Crittenden 2012-02-21 15:16:39 UTC 
The other option is to manually enroll the client, it is just a bit of extra work.

RHEL 5.8 was released today, you might try that package.
