Description Jenny Severance 2010-01-26 20:31:45 UTC

Description of problem:
When executing ipa-server-install --setup-dns in interactive mode, you are asking the following confusing question:

Enter IP address for a DNS forwarder (empty to stop)

The "empty to stop" is a bit confusing.  I think a better way to handle this is to first ask a y/N question as to whether you want to set up forwarders.  If "N", just move on and if "y", prompt for a DNS forwarder IP address.  Ask if they want to define another... prompt for address, etc ... and just enter when done.
