Description Martin Kosek 2014-06-11 10:47:49 EDT

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4268

Attempting to create a dns zone with a name like foo--bar.com. gives the following error:
Zone name: only letters, numbers, and - are allowed.  DNS label may not start or end with -

According to rfc 1034, section 3.5, looks like foo--bar.com. should be acceptable.

This affects OpenStack Designate (DNSaaS) which allows domain names with consecutive dash characters.

Comment 1 Martin Kosek 2014-06-11 11:23:23 EDT

This request is already fixed in upstream FreeIPA project. Please refer to the linked ticket for additional details and related commits.
