Are you saying your configured an IPA server with an IP address not its own? Does forwarding work if you install with a correct IP addr? 1> Yes 2> yes I'm not sure what we can do about this other than sift through the network configuration to determine if --ipaddress is actually being used. I'm not entirely sure how configuring a bogus address is making DNS not work but this isn't really a supported configuration, is it? master: c329a54c093f856d129cf74528d24d13d1792326
