Dear FreeIPA users,

I’m encountering an issue when cloning a virtual machine that is a FreeIPA 
client.

After cloning, I change both the IP address and the system hostname of the new 
VM. However, I noticed that the system can still authenticate users using the 
original FreeIPA keytab, even though the hostname has changed.

This seems incorrect, as I would expect the hostname in the keytab to match the 
system hostname. Yet, the new system continues to authenticate FreeIPA users as 
if it still had the old hostname.

My questions:

How can I ensure that a cloned VM with a new hostname and IP cannot continue to 
authenticate using the keytab from the original machine?

I would say that a "fresh" ipa-client-install is required. (after a proper ipa-client-install --uninstall before which might also be problematic due to the cloning...)

Cheers,
Ronald
