Yeah, I think we should produce a How To on FreeIPA.org as this is what many
people would look for. It was slightly tricky as there were 2 hickups involved:
* SELinux policy bug (WIP)
* ipa-cacert-manage bug where I had to comment one line

Petr/Jan, would you like to create the How To, since you provided me the
instructions?
