Hi,

Just recently heard about FreeIPA and it sounds like exactly what we
need.  So, thanks!

A couple of things that I noticed about the server install script are:
 - passwords are echoed
 - some of the prompts don't have defaults (particularly the y/n ones)
 - perhaps we should ask for the passwords to be confirmed to help avoid typos?

A patch for the password echo is attached.  I'll send separate patches
for the other issues or any more that I encounter.

Thanks again,
Jon
