Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6): Bug 1082590
Description of problem: The ipa-client on a RHEL6.5 server fails to enable autofs when the IPA server is (slightly) older (i.e. RHEL6.4). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ipa-client-3.0.0-37.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install and configure IPA server on RHEL6.4 2. install and configure IPA client on RHEL6.5 with: ipa-client-install 3. try to enable autofs with: ipa-client-automount Actual results: # ipa-client-automount Searching for IPA server... IPA server: [u'ipa.example.com'] Location: default This client is incompatible: 2.49 client incompatible with 2.46 server at u'https://ipa.example.com/ipa/xml' Expected results: # ipa-client-automount Searching for IPA server... IPA server: ipa.example.com Location: default Continue to configure the system with these values? [no]: yes Configured /etc/nsswitch.conf Configured /etc/sysconfig/nfs Configured /etc/idmapd.conf Started rpcidmapd Started rpcgssd Restarting sssd, waiting for it to become available. Started autofs Additional info: Configuring the basis of ipa-client on RHEL6.5 against a RHEL6.4 IPA server works ok. This is not a technical issue of autofs or SSSD since it will work when configured manually. Even more, a 6.4 client updated to 6.5 will continue to work as well.
