RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #591681 +++

Description of problem:

After selecting FreeIPA as authentication server in authconfig and marking checkbox 'Use DNS to locate KDC for realms' it would be good that the fields KDCs and 'Admin servers' are grayed out?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
authconfig-6.1.4-2.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just configure FreeIPA authentication with DNS used to locate KDCs.

Additional info:
In /etc/krb5.conf DNS resolution is selected and in the sam time values of KDC and admin server are filled with exact values. The question is which values have higher priority?

According to the krb5.conf manpage the DNS is used only when the realm and KDC is not filled in. I am not sure whether sssd behaves the same.

Jakub, can you clarify? I think our default behavior is the same, but you're the authority.
