The output of several calls in univention-join is redirected to /dev/null. This makes debugging of join issues harder than is should be.

e.g. when joining a dc backup:
univention-scp "$DCPWD" -r \
    "${DCACCOUNT}@${DCNAME}:/var/lib/univention-ldap/notify/transaction" \
    "$USERTMP/tlog" >/dev/null 2>&1
if [ ! -e "$USERTMP/tlog" ]; then
    failed_message " FAILED: failed to copy /var/lib/univention-ldap/notify/transaction from the dc master. Please try again."
fi

This masks the issue, that the LDAP Account used to join the server was not present in the group "DC Backup Hosts" and was thus denied to read the file.
