[Freeipa-users] unable to add or remove host (exists but doesn't exist) 4.2

["Răzvan Corneliu C.R. VILT"]

Hi Jake,

From the output below (assuming a non-altered copy+paste), the host-add request is interpreted by ipa as "<SPACE>server100.example.com <http://server100.example.com/>" while the delete is interpreted as "server100.example.com <http://server100.example.com/>". If that's the case, try using quotes or searching the LDAP manually for the entry to see the actual registered hostname. If what I'm seeing over here is correct, you might be able to fix it by issuing:
ipa host-del "<SPACE>server100.example.com <http://server100.example.com/>"
(use quotes when issuing the command).

Then again, it might be a wrong copy+paste.

Cheers,
Răzvan
