Hmm, I looked in FreeIPA.org and saw that about a dozen of pages still pointed
to the old, abandoned (http://www.freeipa.org/page/Upstream_User_Guide) Fedora
guides. I went through the pages and changed them all to point to the most up
to date user guide - RHEL-7 guide.

I also added a link to the RHEL-7 migration guide to the FreeIPA.org migration
page, for additional information:

http://www.freeipa.org/page/Howto/Migration#Migrating_Identity_Management_in_RHEL.2FCentOS

If you know about more sources like that, please tell me or update the page.

Thanks,
Martin
