Is there a list of client/server requirements available for FreeIPA?  
On the server side I'm happy to run Fedora 8/9 to satisfy  
requirements. Support for clients which must stay on RHEL3,4,5 seems  
to be the place where you'll need backported packages the most. If  
EPEL doesn't contain the required packages now, does anyone know if  
rpmforge has them? If someone can confirm what is required I don't  
mind chasing down the dependencies and documenting it for future  
reference.
