[Freeipa-users] Failed ipa-client-install with IPA Replica

Thanks David. I installed both the master and replica IPA servers with
third-party certificates(Verisign), but I doubt that could be the issue,
because I had no problem to run the same ipa-client-install command on a
RHEL7 machine(of course, the --hostname used a different hostname of the
server). And I had no problem to run the ipa-client-install command with
--server=<master> on such RHEL6 machine. So what could cause the LDAP
communication failed during the client enrollment with the replica? Is
there a way I can troubleshoot this by running some commands? So far I did
telnet to check the open ports, as well as run the ldapsearch towards the
replica. Thanks again!
