Thanks for the reply! Before attempting this in my production environment,
I had set up a similar configuration in a test environment (FreeIPA 3.0.0
master on CentOS 6.8, FreeIPA 4.4.0 replica on CentOS 7.3) and the
ipa-replica-install went fine. I assumed this was an issue with my FreeIPA
3.0.0 production server.

To enable the fix manually, I'm assuming I'd need to install FreeIPA from
source on the intended replica? If I download the 4.4.3 release from
https://pagure.io/freeipa/releases, will that be sufficient?

Thanks again.
