Description adam@omega.org.uk 2013-04-16 12:29:48 UTC
Description of problem:
When running the installer on a dual stacked system, the user is presented with the following question:

 The server hostname resolves to more than one address:
   yyyy:yyyy:yyyy:yyyy::4
   xxx.xxx.xxx.180
 Please provide the IP address to be used for this host name: 

The actual answer to this question seems to be ignored - the installer seems to successfully configure FreeIPA listening on both v4 and v6 addresses.

Additionally, the zone file suggested by FreeIPA does not contain a AAAA record. This is incorrect.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.1.3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure IPv4 and IPv6 fully on a host
2. Install FreeIPA
  
Actual results:
Spurious question presented, zone file does not contain quad AAA record.

Expected results:
Installer should recognise dual-stacked configuration and generate a AAAA record in the zone file.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Martin Kosek 2013-04-18 11:45:08 UTC
This issue is related to Bug 894063 and upstream ticket https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3338 (deferred).

I will clone this Bug upstream, with different target. We should only force people to pass --ip-address if the hostname is not resolvable. If it is, we should just use standard resolution to find out all addresses.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 15:28:56 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Martin Kosek 2014-01-02 13:24:47 UTC
This issue is still valid for current Fedora version, changing the version field.
