A host that has been recreated and does not have its host entry disabled or removed, can be re-enrolled using a previously backed up keytab file. A new option --keytab has been added to ipa-client-install. This can be used to specify path to the keytab and can be used instead of -p or -w options. A new option -f has been added to ipa-join. It forces client to join even if the host entry already exits. A new certificate, ssh keys are generated, ipaUniqueID stays the same.

IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
