[Freeipa-users] ipa-client install error

[Steven Jones]

Hi,

Sorry, I used IPA I should have used lower case eg,

"But ipa command still
won't work properly as its API is higher that the server's."

The way I read that is a client will have limited command line capability? that would be Ok over say some weeks while we upgraded.

regards

That is a bit of a loaded question. It depends on your definition of
"properly" but basically if IPA server isn't working, none of your auth
or identity works. Depending on what state sssd thinks the server is in
it may fall back into offline mode in which case individual workstations
will still operate but networked authentication/identity will fail.
