[Freeipa-users] Cannot obtain CA Certificate

[Peter Brown]

Hi John,

I ran into a similar issue with setting up a 2.2 client with a 3.1 server.
It turned out to be that port 80 wasn't open on the freeipa server.
I would check your ports and see if the right ones are open.
I also find that setting up the SRV and TXT records in your dns zone makes
setting up clients a lot simpler.
