Bug 2009114

The provided attachment displays the output of ipa dns* command, not the ldapsearch specifically asked for.

ipa dns* commands normalize the output and it's possible that the LDAP entry is missing the trailing dot but the ipa dnszone-show command displays the zone name with the trailing dot. That's why the output of ldapsearch is interesting in order to understand why the PTR record is built without the trailing dot.

I have a patch: https://github.com/pvoborni/freeipa/commits/ptr-from-host-master , can create pull request when this is ticket is cloned upstream.

Fixed upstream:

The upstream fix also includes a test: ipatests/test_webui/test_dns.py::test_dns::test_ptr_from_host_creation
