#1261 Automatic DNS zone creation works only on DNS powered master
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by mkosek.

When a new DNS zone (reverse/forward) is created by ipa-replica-prepare and the zone is not managed by IPA yet, a new zone is automatically created.

However, the zone nameserver is set to the current hostname which doesn't have to have a bind installed (e.g. a replica for bind-powered master).

Right now, I see 2 possible solutions:
1. Fix ipa-replica-prepare to get a list of DNS powered masters (this would have to be implemented) and add them to NS for new zone
2. Forbid automatic creation of DNS zone in ipa-replica-prepare as we do in ipa host-add $HOST --ip-address=$IP_ADDRESS and let the administrator to properly create the DNS zone first


Ad 1: a search for cn=masters,cn=ipa,cn=etc,$SUFFIX should do the trick
