Hi, Luis

You can import ldif using the standard LDAP tools since IPA is built on 
top of the DS. Be aware that the freeIPA's DIT is flattened and the LDIF 
should this put entries into the places where IPA expects them. See 
freeIPA documentation for more details

If you need a more gradual NIS migration then Penrose OSS project is 
something that would help you a lot.
See

for more details.

Thanks
Dmitri
