[Freeipa-users] freeipa client wont install on host where a ipa server guest is already installed.

[Joshua Nager]

Does this mean I should be able to login with the credentials supplied by
the ipa-server?  If so, I can not.
The host box does not recognize any user accounts in the ipa domain at all.

Any help is much appreciated as I would love to get this working.

Right, an IPA server is already configured as a client of itself.
