Sorry, clicked the send button before typed anything.
It looks like this is the result of the OID fix we made some time ago.
We recommend using ipa-client 2.0 with the latest IPA.
The client in RHEL 6.0 has the bug related to password change that
prevents it to work with IPA v2.
There is no fix for 6.0 yet and since ipa-client in RHEL 6.0 is in tech
preview there is no plan to release any asynch errata for it.
RHEL 6.1 will carry the right version of ipa-client.
We might be able to build an upstream version of the ipa-client for RHEL
but not sooner we release the 2.0 (any time now...).
