Description of problem: I have EL6 installed with IPA-Server. Everything was fine with Fedora16. But when I've tried to join IPA-client ?n Fedora17, I've recieved this message: |ipa : ERROR LDAP Error: Can't contact LDAP server: |Failed to verify that ipaserver.bashnl.local is an IPA Server. |This may mean that the remote server is not up or is not reachable |due to network or firewall settings. |Installation failed. Rolling back changes. |IPA client is not configured on this system. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Server: IPA-Server installed from repository Client: Fedora17 with "minimal" install. after installation process, I've installed "htop, nmap, bash-completion, vim-enhanced". After that I've installed "ipa-client, ipa-admintools" from repository How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. install Fedora17 2. install ipa-client, ipa-admintools 3. run 'ipa-cilent-install --enable-dns-update --mkhomedir' Actual results: |ipa : ERROR LDAP Error: Can't contact LDAP server: |Failed to verify that ipaserver.bashnl.local is an IPA Server. |This may mean that the remote server is not up or is not reachable |due to network or firewall settings. |Installation failed. Rolling back changes. |IPA client is not configured on this system. Expected results: join Fedora17 as ipa-client to ipa-server Additional info:
The bottom line was the user had opened port 399 in their firewall, not 389. We should include the port in error messages where possible.
