Description François Cami 2016-12-14 14:21:10 UTC
Description of problem:
The IPA installer does not support classless reverse zones.
Specifying a classless reverse zone like --reverse-zone=128/25.136.19.172.in-addr.arpa. results in an empty zone post-install.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-4.4.0-12.el7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. launch ipa-server-install --reverse-zone=128/25.136.19.172.in-addr.arpa.
2. if it succeeds the reverse zone is empty

Actual results:
Empty reverse zone

Expected results:
Non-empty reverse zone

Moving to RHEL 8 to be considered with the ansible work.

Thank you taking your time and submitting this request for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The request was cloned to the upstream tracker a long time ago (see link to the upstream ticket above), but it was unfortunately not given priority either in the upstream project, nor in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Given that this request is not planned for a close release, it is highly unlikely it will be fixed in this major version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. We are therefore closing the request as WONTFIX.

To request that Red Hat reconsiders the decision, please reopen the Bugzilla with the help of Red Hat Customer Service and provide additional business and/or technical details about it's importance to you. Please note that you can still track this request or even offer help in the referred upstream Pagure ticket to expedite the solution.
