I have IPA server installed on CentOS Linux 7.6. (IPA VERSION: 4.6.4,
API_VERSION: 2.229), but I have some older servers, that run older versions of CentOS:
- on the ones that have CentOS version 6.x, there is only version 3.0.0 of ipa-client
available in repository
- on the ones that have CentOS version 7 or lower that 7.6 there is only version 4.4.0 of
ipa-client available in repository
On the page about the client (
https://www.freeipa.org/page/Client ) I have found some
compatibility notes, but the article talks mainly about connecting newer clients to older
servers. What about the other way around? Which problems can I expect when I connect older
clients to the newer server? Will I have to configure SSSD manually?
It should work basically the same way. SSSD will be configured.
The differences will be in the capabilities on the clients due to older
versions of software (krb5, sssd, sudo, etc).
