Hello Andrew!
In this case, the note in your error message is important: There is no reverse 
address for 10.10.52.158 in FreeIPA. You’ll need to access it and add the 
reverse zone in Network Services -> DNS and add a PTR entry for your new 
replica (10.10.52.158).

After this you shouldn’t have problems with setting up replicas. If you use a 
VPN, you may have to set up a split-horizon DNS, so that your replication 
traffic will go through the VPN.
