You don't need anything really but a virtual machine. I would actually hope that you give it a try. I have been trying to set up a free ipa server based on Ubuntu 15.10/16.04 and it has been a uphill battle all the way. So match so that I am thinking about giving up and rolling it in a docker container or just installing a CentOS server. I'm not saying this as a threat but just to get my level of frustration across.
Steps: 1.) Install freeipa server: sudo apt-get install freeipa-server 2.) configure ipa: sudo ipa-server-install 2.a) Opt to install DNS server 3.) Dns will not work because AppArmor blocks bind9 from reading the freeipa domain. ← easy fix. Also you will hit this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/certmonger/+bug/1509484 4.) Install freeipa-server-trust-ad and run ipa-adtrust-install I'm not sure what options I set exactly, but it shouldn't matter to match. Is there a log file created by the installer somewhere? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of FreeIPA, which is subscribed to freeipa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1543230 Title: After installing freeipa-server-trust-ad ipa tries to start smb.service which doesn't exist Status in freeipa package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Installing freeipa-server-trust-ad (and running ipa-adtrust-install) will degrade the ipa server and brake the enter system, including dns server (bind9).
