#5559 ipa-server-install: "--auto-reverse" has no effect
Closed: Fixed None Opened 8 years ago by ofayans.

The --auto-reverse option of ipa-server-install has no effect.

Environment:
local libvirt-powered VMs, no dns server, ip subnet: 192.168.122.0/24

setup:
ipa-server-install -U -r justfor.test -p <dirman_pw> -a <admin_pw> --domain-level=0 --auto-reverse --ip-address=<master_ip> --setup-dns --forwarder 192.168.122.1

expected results:
The reverse zone 122.168.192.in-addr.arpa. is created

actual results:
only the forward zone is created


master:

  • aab190c Fix --auto-reverse option in --unattended mode.

ipa-4-3:

  • 2c0dc77 Fix --auto-reverse option in --unattended mode.

Ticket cannot be closed yet:

Still, this is not sufficient in all cases because 'automatic empty zones'
created by BIND (as specified in RFC 6303) can shadow the reverse zones
hosted on other servers. This needs to be solved in a separate patch.

No changes observed in the local libvirt-powered setup. Even despite that the local /etc/hosts file of the host machine does not contain info about guest hosts (which makes libvirt to consider reverse zone to be managed)

Closing, this should just work because IPA now depends on bind-dyndb-ldap >= 9.0.
