#2601 Constraints for CNAME records are not enforced
Closed: Fixed None Opened 11 years ago by pspacek.

Cite from http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1912 section 2.4: "A CNAME record is not allowed to coexist with any other data." (PTR record is an exception, see further text in RFC.)

If there are multiple records for single DNS name (with CNAME and other RR types at same time), behaviour is undefined.

BIND refuses to load zone with mixed names/records. We have to follow standard and enforce same constraint.


Moving to next month iteration.

Patch freeipa-mkosek-290-enforce-cname-constrains-for-dns-commands.patch sent for review
