Hello,

    Partially reverts commit of 04ea75a7a5109907ede2a0216bd39fac46a992c0

    The fix 04ea75a7a5109907ede2a0216bd39fac46a992c0 restricted the DNA
    scope to 'cn=accounts,SUFFIX' .
    This was invalid. If you run recent master instance (with that
    scoping) you may need to reinstall IPA or do the following:

        ldapmodify -h .. -p 389 -D "cn=directory manager" -w xxx
        cn=Posix IDs,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment
        Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
        changetype: modify
        replace: dnaScope
        dnaScope: $SUFFIX

        ipactl restart

    Thanks Sumit for this catch. The new patch revert the change in dna
    update.
