[Freeipa-users] FreeBSD client

No, I don't believe 3.0 on CentOS 6 (sorry I didn't share that detail) has
ipa-advise. Isn't it introduced in FreeIPA 4?  I'm not necessarily opposed
to upgrading, but I'm a bit reticent about switching from a yum package to
a git pull (perhaps I'm just a bit gun shy today). Is there anything I can
try before that?

On a related note, I've fallen back to pointing nsswitch.conf at my ipa
server using ldap. It's working over plain old ldap on 389, but when I try
to config it as ldaps, I can do an ldapsearch, but id/getent fail.

This works "well enough" for my current needs, but it's still a curious
situation.
