Description Martin Kosek 2013-09-17 14:28:51 UTC
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3923

AD implicitly assumes that the DNS domain name and the realm of a trusted domain are the same. This means that a trust will never work if IPA is configured with different realm and domain name.

This Bug plans to amend the situation in following way:
- ipa-server-install will WARN user if realm and domain differs that AD Trusts will not be possible
- Fail in ipa-adtrust-install if realm and domain is different
- Fail in trust-add if realm and domain is different
