#5364 [RFE] IPA DNS with LDAP slave mode support
Closed: Invalid None Opened 8 years ago by pvoborni.

Need to be able to create slave zone with IPA DNS servers and the zone must be replicated by LDAP servers.

It must support to:

  • configure address of master server, from which zone must be transfered in the WEB-GUI
  • configure TSIG key for zone transfer in the WEB-GUI

Use case:

If an environment has many sites and on that sites have one or more IPA server. It is hard to configure and maintain named.conf files on every IPA server. It's much easier to configure a zone once and then it will replicate on every site/IPA server.


FreeIPA DNS server being a slave DNS for a DNS zone not managed by FreeIPA is not a use case we are targeting with FreeIPA and it's LDAP storage/interface for DNS records. This should be rather done via BIND configuration.

Further details about scope of FreeIPA DNS feature can be found on page http://www.freeipa.org/page/DNS .

I am thus closing the request as WONTFIX.
