[Freeipa-users] host does not match the primary host name - installing replica

hi guys, this must be something trivial and I must have gone blind, can you spot what I missed? $ ipa-replica-install --setup-dns --no-forwarders --ip-address=10.5.8.65 WARNING: conflicting time&date synchronization service 'chronyd' will be disabled in favor of ntpd   Your system may be partly configured. Run /usr/sbin/ipa-server-install --uninstall to clean up.   ipapython.admintool: ERROR    The host name rider.xxx does not match the primary host name rider-ring8.xxx. Please check /etc/hosts or DNS name resolution $ host -r 10.5.8.97 97.8.5.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer rider.xxx. 97.8.5.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer rider-ring8.xxx. $ host -r 10.5.8.49 49.8.5.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer whale.xxx. 49.8.5.10.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer whale-ring8.xxx. $ host rider-ring8.. rider-ring8. has address 10.5.8.97 $ host rider.. rider. has address 10.5.8.97 Primary hostname of the box replica-install complains of is rider.xxx. Why IPA thinks it is rider-ring8.xxx ? What can be wrong? many thanks, L.
