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 Dmitri Pal 2012-06-19 16:03:38 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2845

If A and PTR record for a replica are wrong as soon as we switch to GSSAPI agreements then replication will stop working.
We should probably check that both replica resolve properly both direct and reverse and fail install with a clear message if they are not.
We should probably work ok if /etc/hosts is fine (as that what libgssapi would end up looking into), but we should probably still do lookup in DNS (if the master/replica has DNS installed) just to make sure clients will be able to work as well.
Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 06:21:21 UTC 
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2012-07-10 23:28:51 UTC 
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development.  This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.
Comment 3 Rob Crittenden 2012-09-21 13:21:21 UTC 
Fixed upstream.

This does a DNS/hosts file look up on the replica, it is double-checked via the conncheck we do, and finally if IPA is managing DNS we double-check that the host is there as well and prompt if not.

Comment 7 Michael Gregg 2014-01-24 01:12:39 UTC 
Verified against ipa-server-3.3.3-13.el7.x86_64

Verified that replica install outputs clear error messages when the A and PTR records differ on a SLAVE. 

 Running 'ipa-replica-prepare -p Secret123 --ip-address=10.8.60.64 zippyvm5.idm.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com &> cat /opt/rhqa_ipa/ipa-replica-prepare-output-6.txt' (Expected 0, got 2)
Add the --ip-address argument to create a DNS entry.
The host name zippyvm5.idm.lab.eng.rdu2.redhat.com does not match the reverse lookup zippyvm5.testrelm.com
Comment 8 Ludek Smid 2014-06-13 13:00:21 UTC 
This request was resolved in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.0.
