Anthony,
RHEL 5/CentOS 5 require backporting of a few packages to be able to
successfully use freeipa.
It will require quite some work within EPEL to backport stuff like
turbogears, the kdc ldap backend and other python dependencies.
If someone wants to picj that work up it would be nice, but we do not
plan on doing that work as part of the FreeIPA project.

Wouldn't that make FreeIPA and Ovirt kind of useless until RHEL6?

Other than updated python support, what is required? 

Is there a list of client/server requirements available for FreeIPA? On the server side I'm happy to run Fedora 8/9 to satisfy requirements. Support for clients which must stay on RHEL3,4,5 seems to be the place where you'll need backported packages the most. If EPEL doesn't contain the required packages now, does anyone know if rpmforge has them? If someone can confirm what is required I don't mind chasing down the dependencies and documenting it for future reference.

The source for Red Hat's IPA is here
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/RHEIPA/SRPMS/

this is built for RHEL 5.  I will ping CentOS and see if they are building it, they used to have a RH directory server.  If not, I will see what it takes to remove RH trademarks and pass the binaries along
