[Freeipa-users] While attempting to join a client ....I get this failure....

[Steven Jones]

I have just built these 2 fed14 to act as a server and client and run
yum update....so they should be as closely sync'd as possible...

So nothing major on the server needs updating and the client is bang up
to date, time stamp is close....
