Not too informative, so let's start and troubleshoot - 

a. please use dig to get SRV records for kerberos and ldap for the domain and attach it - 

For example - for domain example.com (kerberos realm - EXAMPLE.COM) 
dig SRV _ldap._tcp.example.com 
dg SRV _kerberos._tcp.example.com 

b. Do you have a PTR record at your DNS defined for your IPA server? 

When looking at the code of the manage-domains tool I see the reason that the log is not informative enough is that our translator from "kerberos + ldap error codes" to "human readable" errors failed to translate the message. 
IMHO, we should send a patch for this + provide a way to get more descriptive logging in this case. 
Can you please let us know if the tips I suggested regarding DNS have helped?
