[Freeipa-users] Host with Multiple hostnames

[Michael Plemmons]

The error is telling you that a DNS entry already exists for the hostname
you want the CNAME.  A DNS record can only have one record type.  Meaning
is you have 1.2.3.4 points to test.example.com you cannot have
test.example.com also be a CNAME for foo.example.com.
