btw, i've created a new machine with following settings , by abandoning the
".local" TLD
Hostname : testing-infra-01-dal1.testing.stg.avtar.test
realm_name: avtar.test
domain_name: avtar.test
But still getting the same error as below
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ipapython.dnsutil: ERROR DNS query for testing-infra-01-dal13.testing.stg.avtar.test.1
failed: All nameservers failed to answer the query
testing-infra-01-dal13.testing.stg.avtar.test. IN A: Server 127.0.0.1 UDP port 53 answered
SERVFAIL
ipaserver.dns_data_management: ERROR unable to resolve host name
testing-infra-01-dal13.testing.stg.avtar.test. to IP address, ipa-ca DNS record will be
incomplete
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
And The entry in resolv.conf is as below
search avtar.test
nameserver 127.0.0.1
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
But if i give "testing.stg.avtar.test" as my domain & realm name then things
just work fine without any errors. Any comments on this behaviour , why is it working in
this case??
