The steps you mention seem fine to me Roberto, Detlev has detailed
an
alternative.
If you lose a client and need to rebuild (i.e. you didn't get chance to
run the "--uninstall" option) then you can also just delete the host entry
from IPA through the web gui or ipa command line before running the
ipa-client-install (join) command.
When I have issues with clients (very infrequent and I have some 5000
clients) I find that running the "--uninstall" and then the install (steps
1 and 3) fix most issues without having to look into them (blind fix for
the time wary!)

Hi,
you can reinstall a client with something like this:
/usr/sbin/ipa-client-install --force --unattended —domain=xxx —realm=xxx
—server=xxx —server=yyy --force-ntpd —keytab=./krb5.keytab
--ca-cert-file=./ca.crt
But you must save your keytab and ca file before.
For me it is working …
