Re: [Freeipa-users] Freeipa replica info to clents: guidance
Hi, Rakesh Try 'ipa-client-install' with this option '--fixed-primary'. with it, '_srv_' will disappeared From man page: --fixed-primary Configure SSSD to use a fixed server as the primary IPA server. The default is to use DNS SRV records to determine the primary server to use and fall back to the server the client is enrolled with. When used in conjunction with --server then no _srv_ value is set in the ipa_server option in sssd.conf.
