Ok, I need to get a better handle on how this was originally installed 
in order to guide you. Can you look to see if 
/var/log/ipaserver-install.log still exists? It should have the original 
arguments passed.

What I need to know is if this was installed using a dogtag CA or if it 
was installed as a selfsign server.
