If you do not like the idea of running privileged containers, good
news for you: the latest code at

	https://github.com/adelton/docker-freeipa
	
as well as the new images at https://hub.docker.com/u/adelton/
allow the FreeIPA server containers to be run unprivileged.

Also newly available is branch rhel-6 with Identity Management server
configured on RHEL 6.
