Description Rob Crittenden 2012-05-07 15:45:15 EDT

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2717

Fix help of `--forwarder` option in per-zone configuration. Current help mentions "global forwarder", but this term is used rather for the list of forwarders in global DNS configuration and not for per-zone conditional forwarding:

{{{
# ipa dnszone-mod --help
Usage: ipa [global-options] dnszone-mod NAME [options]
...
 --forwarder=STR       A list of global forwarders. A custom port can be
                        specified for each forwarder using a standard format
                        "IP_ADDRESS port PORT"

# ipa dnsconfig-mod --help
Usage: ipa [global-options] dnsconfig-mod [options]
...
  --forwarder=STR       A list of global forwarders. A custom port can be
                        specified for each forwarder using a standard format
                        "IP_ADDRESS port PORT"
}}}

Comment 6 Rob Crittenden 2012-12-13 13:43:49 EST

The dnszone-mod fix was all that was called for. dnsconfig-mod sets global forwarding. This appears fixed to me.

Comment 7 Dmitri Pal 2012-12-13 20:25:59 EST

Namita, do you agree? Rob can you bounce it back?

Comment 8 Martin Kosek 2012-12-14 10:37:14 EST

Namita, Rob is right. dnsconfig --forwarder option contains a global DNS forwarder, dnszone --forwarder contains a per-zone forwarder.

Comment 9 Namita Soman 2012-12-17 08:34:01 EST

Marking verified. Help for dnszone-mod is updated as expected.
