[Freeipa-users] ipa 2 client connecting to ipa 3 server

[Walid]

Thanks Rob, we have native python2.4, and anaconda python 2.7,  so i guess
if anything needs python 2.6 or greater it would not be an issue. I  am
just wondering if there are people using the upstream project in such a
legacy system ;-)
