Hi, I completed installation using the recommended FQHN ipa.<mydomain>.de of FreeIPA server.
How can I add a client host configured with sub-domain local.<mydomain>.de?

Hi,
if FreeIPA server was installed with embedded DNS, you can add a DNS zone for local.<mydomain>.de (see [1]), have the client point to FreeIPA master DNS (configure /etc/resolv.conf) and simply run ipa-client-install --domain <mydomain>.de --realm <MYDOMAIN>.DE. HTH, flo

Hi Florence,
I intend to define a subdomain for each network, e.g. DMZ = dmz.<mydomain>.de (10.0.0.0/24) -> VLAN LAN = local.<mydomain>.de (192.168.1.0/24) SHZ = smz.<mydomain>.de (Smart Home Network) (10.0.10.0/28) -> VLAN
Does this make sense to you? Or is this an overkill?

There is no specific reason to object here, from FreeIPA point of view, of course.
Look at ipa-client-install's manual page: ------------------------------------------------- DNS Autodiscovery Client installer by default tries to search for _ldap._tcp.DOMAIN DNS SRV records for all domains that are parent to its hostname. For example, if a client machine has a hostname 'client1.lab.example.com', the installer will try to retrieve an IPA server hostname from _ldap._tcp.lab.example.com, _ldap._tcp.example.com and _ldap._tcp.com DNS SRV records, respectively. The discovered domain is then used to configure client components (e.g. SSSD and Kerberos 5 configuration) on the machine.
When the client machine hostname is not in a subdomain of an IPA server, its domain can be passed with --domain option. In that case, both SSSD and Kerberos components have the domain set in the configuration files and will use it to autodiscover IPA servers.
Client machine can also be configured without a DNS autodiscovery at all. When both --server and --domain options are used, client installer will use the specified server and domain directly. --server option accepts multiple server hostnames which can be used for failover mechanism. Without DNS autodiscovery, Kerberos is configured with a fixed list of KDC and Admin servers. SSSD is still configured to either try to read domain's SRV records or the specified fixed list of servers. When --fixed-primary option is specified, SSSD will not try to read DNS SRV record at all (see sssd-ipa(5) for details). -------------------------------------------------
So it is irrelevant where the client is -- pass --domain <IPA primary domain> to ipa-client-install and it will be discovered automatically.
