In order for the ipa-client-install command to run, the hostname of desktopX cannot be localhost.localdomain. ROL students may need to set the hostname to desktopX.example.com using the hostname command.

The output in item 2a was different than my output. After running "sudo ipa-client-install --domain=server34.example.com --no-ntp --mkhomedir" I was prompted to, "Provide your IPA server name (ex: ipa.example.com)." I entered server34.example.com. I then received a message regarding a failure of DNS to find my IPA server. This didn't bother me much since students get the same messages in RH413, but a student who is comparing the output on desktopX with the output on this page might be concerned. Finally, the output on my desktopX displayed the realm in all uppercase (SERVERX.EXAMPLE.COM) rather than having example.com in lower-case (seen in item 2a).
