[Freeipa-users] RHEL5 clients not getting ssh key

[Aric Wilisch]

I wish I could, but unfortunately these are RHEL 5 because the client has not yet upgraded their software to work on 6 or 7, so I’m stuck with a RHEL 5 infrastructure for awhile. 

As long as it authenticates and sudo works we may just have to live with the keys not working. 

Thanks for the info though. I might try 1.9 and see if that fixes the problem.
