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.

Description Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2012-02-14 06:45:58 UTC 
Description of problem:

This was raised by atolani as part of IPA DNS Test day.

When options are provided to dnsrecord-add and if any of the required option is missing, then the expected behaviour is to prompt for it interactively instead of displaying an error message. Similar to how we prompt for the zone name and record name if not provided in the command line.

for example: 
[root@zetaprime ~]# ipa dnsrecord-add --sshfp-algorithm=1 --sshfp-fp-type=1
Zone name: lab.eng.pnq.redhat.com
Record name: test44
ipa: ERROR: invalid 'sshfprecord': 'sshfp_fingerprint' is a required part of DNS record
[root@zetaprime ~]# 

Here the user expected a interactive prompt asking for "sshfp_fingerprint"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ipa-server-2.2.0-101.20120127T0607zgit6863b8f.el6.x86_64

Comment 3 Rob Crittenden 2012-03-02 20:21:55 UTC 
fixed upstream:

master: 1d09cdf6342cfd715c366e881ced1d1f22d1503a

ipa-2-2: 104e9762375ac1d27fa0a853563b4de176d2fa8e

LOC is another record type that is interesting to test.

Also handles ^C and ^D.
Comment 5 Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2012-04-16 08:14:32 UTC 
[root@primenova ~]# ipa dnsrecord-add testrelm.com --sshfp-algorithm=2
Record name: sshfp
SSHFP Fingerprint Type: 2
SSHFP Fingerprint: 8F3AFB98121C1DFF087E004A862D30B8935946D8,
  Record name: sshfp
  SSHFP record: 2 2 8F3AFB98121C1DFF087E004A862D30B8935946D8,
[root@primenova ~]# 

This works as expected, however, while providing both --sshfp-algorithm and --sshfp-fp-type it asks for sshfp fingerprint multiple times.

[root@primenova ~]# ipa dnsrecord-add --sshfp-algorithm=1 --sshfp-fp-type=1
Zone name: testrelm.com
Record name: sshfp2
SSHFP Fingerprint: A69D7E3D53DB419FE43830956F08C0BC51431F89         <<<<<<
SSHFP Fingerprint: 8F3AFB98121C1DFF087E004A862D30B8935946D8         <<<<<<
  Record name: sshfp2
  SSHFP record: 1 1 8F3AFB98121C1DFF087E004A862D30B8935946D8
