Hello,
I installed FreeIPA replica on 4.8.4 on CentOS 8 from 4.4.4 from Fedora
25 with `ipa-replica-install --setup-dns --auto-forwarders`, without
`--setup-ca` due to errors, which went fine. I do want to install CA
though, which failed when I did `--setup-ca` and then later
`ipa-ca-install` with the following error:
```
[4/29]: creating installation admin user
Unable to log in as uid=admin-freeipa2.infra.opensuse.org,ou=people,o=ipaca on
ldap://freeipa.infra.opensuse.org:389
[hint] tune with replication_wait_timeout
[error] NotFound: uid=admin-freeipa2.infra.opensuse.org,ou=people,o=ipaca did not
replicate to ldap://freeipa.infra.opensuse.org:389
Your system may be partly configured.
Run /usr/sbin/ipa-server-install --uninstall to clean up.
```
Obviously I did try try extending the timeout based on that, but I don't
think that was helpful in the end, considering the logs produced by the
old server:
httpd access_log

and from pki logs
```
Failed to authenticate as admin
UID=admin-freeipa2.infra.opensuse.org. Error:
netscape.ldap.LDAPException: error result (49)
```
I don't particularly know how to proceed from here, since those errors
don't mean much to me. I see however it's not just me having issues with
`ipa-ca-install` at least similar to this one (although by the looks of
it, the reason is already different ;)
This step creates the admin user on the
local LDAP server and tries to
authenticate to it on the other side.
I'd look to see if this user exists on both servers and the 389-ds
access logs on both to see what is going on.
