--domain in the server is the default DNS zone for the IPA installation. --domain in the client tells it where to look for the IPA server in DNS. There is no actual NIS domain but since netgroups are a NIS construct it requires something to be set. The NIS domain needs to match the IPA server domain. rob -- Manage your subscription for the Freeipa-users mailing list: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-users Go to http://freeipa.org for more info on the project
