Hi Simo

I have used oddjob in the past and it works a treat, however this was
with ipa-client-install..

I was just dappling around with the script over diner and saw you were
an author...

whenever I use the flag --mkhomedir with ipa-client-install, i get the
wrong contexts on the home dirs...

I raised a bugzilla ticket just before I left the office. Bug *786223*
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=786223>.

I'll keep playing with it an see what I come across. I'll feed back if
anything useful comes up.

Dale
