Hi guys,
I'm running freeipa-server-2.1.4-5.fc16.x86_64.

Following the documentation I can see that to uninstall and reinstall a
freeipa system it is sufficient to:

> ipa-server-install <parameters>
> ipa-server-install --uninstall
> ipa-server-install <parameters>

Well, when re-installing the system, I get this error on the console:
[cut]
done configuring named.
Configuration of client side components failed!
ipa-client-install returned: Command '/usr/sbin/ipa-client-install
--on-master --unattended --domain unix.mydomain.it --server
freeipa01.unix.mydomain.it --realm UNIX.MYDOMAIN.IT --hostname
freeipa01.unix.mydomain.it' returned non-zero exit status 1

I had a look to /var/log/ipaclient-install.log and I saw these lines

[cut]

So I tried a new "ipa-server-install --uninstall" and checked the file
/etc/ipa/ca.crt. And it remained there.
What is the problem?

Thanks
