So I am trying to add the first ipa client to my test environment. If
I am running ipa-client-install as a root, why is it barking that
nisdomainname: you must be root to change the domain name
[root@idm-client1 /]# ipa-client-install --domain example.test
--no-ntp --mkhomedir
This program will set up IPA client.
Version 4.9.12
Discovery was successful!
