While I don't know much about the issue you mentioned, you can add the mkhomedir switch to the necessary pam files later also. If you don't know the exact files and switches, compare it with an identical machine where you have mkhomedir switch enabled at the time of IPA client installation. I think you can even copy the same pam files and put it inside your /etc/pam.d

Hi,

For the client I suspect you need to set the mkhomedir flag when doing the install, I dont know how to set it afterward so I suggest a quick fix is un-install the client and re-install with that flag.

Hi,

I am setting up a freeipa2 server (both fedora 15), and I was able to get the ipa-client-install to work perfectly (as far as I know) by yum excluding libcurl and curl. If I run kinit brad, I can authenticate and that works aswell.




But when I want to login as me through gdm, I get "Could not update ICEauthority file /home/brad/.ICEauthority" granted the home folders do not exist as this would be my first ever login.



Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated, as I am currently replacing a windows computer lab to fedora, and have got eveything else ready to go.



Thanks You for a great product.
