Description Christian Horn 2019-09-11 03:15:04 UTC
Description of problem:
cockpit-389-ds allows easy creation of new suffices.  The "suffix dn" is pretty self explaining, but not "backend name".  Seems like it has to be a string which should stay unique on that system.

This could also be solved in documentation, but I think just giving a good hint directly in cockpit is better.  I did not see details on this in the install-guide and admin-guide.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cockpit-196.2-1.el8.x86_64
cockpit-389-ds-1.4.1.6-2.module+el8dsrv+3912+aa2ce078.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try to add a suffix
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:

Builds tested:
389-ds-base-1.4.1.9-1.module+el8dsrv+4243+ba0eb3c6.x86_64
cockpit-389-ds-1.4.1.9-1.module+el8dsrv+4243+ba0eb3c6.noarch

Suffix and backend name are pre-filled with the default values.

Marking as VERIFIED.
