Hi folks,
I am confused: Setting up a new freeipa service (CentOS 7.5) using
ipa-server-install or ipa-dns-install it asks me
Do you want to search for missing reverse zones? [yes]: yes
But then it did not create a reverse zone :-(.
This doesn't look like documented. There is no "--no-reverse", it
did not list any reverse zones it has found, so it should have asked
"Do you want to configure the reverse zone?".
How can I tell ipa-dns-install to create a reverse zone (no matter
what), suitable for dynamic updates, before it adds its own host
name and IPv4 address to the database?
Every helpful comment is highly appreciated.
Harri
