Closed: Invalid None Opened 13 years ago by rcritten.

tracking for bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=574066

For companies located in various countries, it would be ideal if the built-in

An example of how this can be done with BIND is documented here:

Hello.

Based on a long discussion, FreeIPA team recently revised Goals and Assumptions of the DNS component in IPA/IdM:

Based on the information linked from that page, FreeIPA team decided that support for this feature directly does not really fit our direction and should be resolved in other way. I am therefore closing this request as WONTFIX.

It might be worth looking at ticket:2008 as it covers some subset of use-cases for GeoIP. Some other use-cases will be covered by ticket:4424.

Have a nice day.
