Description of problem: After setting up ipa trust, CLDAP plugin fails to start if IPv6 support is disabled in the kernel. For example: LINUX...[25/Nov/2013:15:37:06 +0100] ipa_cldap_init_service - [file ipa_cldap.c, line 148]: Failed to create socket [25/Nov/2013:15:37:06 +0100] ipa_cldap_init - [file ipa_cldap.c, line 207]: Failed to initialize CLDAP Plugin Version-Release number of selected component : ipa 3.X How reproducible: 100 % Steps to Reproduce: NA Actual results: Identity Management guide does not mention the requirement of having IPv6 support to use IPA AD trust Expected results: Update the Documentation to include the IPv6 support on the machine to use IPA AD trust. Additional info: snip from : https://www.redhat.com/archives/freeipa-devel/2013-May/msg00278.html --------------------- Here is what we have in ipa_cldap.c: ctx->sd = socket(PF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, 0); if (ctx->sd == -1) { LOG_FATAL("Failed to create socket\n"); ret = EIO; goto done; } So we failed to create a socket using PF_INET6 family. It looks like you don't have IPv6 enabled in your kernel? -- / Alexander Bokovoy ---------------------
Just make the message more explicit.
