[Freeipa-users] attempting to Import Local Accounts into FreeIPA Server on Fedora 25: ipa: ERROR: Could not get User login interactively

[Robert Kudyba]

I’m trying to use the script posted on https://shellonearth.net/import-local-accounts-in-freeipa-rhelcentos/. I’m getting the below error. Have the options for ipa user-add changed recently? Here’s what the error looks like in context from the CLI:

Password for admin at ourdomain:
User login:
ipa: ERROR: Could not get User login interactively

Here is what’s in the script:

ipa user-add $USER --first=$FIRST --last=$LAST --cn="$FULL" --displayname="$FULL" --uid=$UUID --gidnumber=$GID --setattr userpassword='{crypt}$CRYPT'
