[Freeipa-users] unhappy replication?

[Kat]

This brings up a question - if I just installed a master -- shouldn't I 
be able to create the replica immediately after (even if I did a 
migration from an old LDAP server?)  Am I looking at some sort of "wait 
until I'm done.." condition with the primary server?

This is the only other replica so there is nothing there.  I guess time 
to go digging around.  It is 3.3.3 on CentOS 7..

I'll let you know if I fine anything else.

Thanks.
