Description Zak Berrie 2008-09-05 17:42:51 UTC 
The ipa-client-install command is unable to find the IPA server on a network that uses AD DNS.
Comment 1 Brian Likosar 2008-12-23 16:27:10 UTC 
This is probably due to the fact that AD has its own SRV records for kerberos and ldap that it adds in, so ipa-client-install gets those records instead of any that you might have added for IPA.
Comment 4 Rob Crittenden 2010-09-14 16:33:02 UTC 
David, the problem is that we can't know that the SRV records are not for IPA. Please ensure that this it is documented that when running ipa-client-install in an AD environment you may have to manually provide the server to use.
