I am glad to hear that.

Can you please describe what exactly was wrong in the DNS? We already do
several DNS checks which should prevent errors caused by misconfigured DNS.

If we can reproduce your case, we can enhance our checks in ipa-server-install
to prevent error like this in a future.

Thanks,
