Hi,<br>
<br>
I've been running and using a single FreeIPA server successfully,
i.e.:<br>
Fedora 24<br>
freeipa-server-4.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64<br>
This server is only available via IPv6, because I can't get public
lPv4 addresses no more.<br>
<br>
Now I want to setup a FreeIPA replica at another site also running
IPv6, Fedora 24 and freeipa-server-4.3.2-2.fc24.x86_64<br>
First I run "ipa-client-install" which succeeds without an error.<br>
When I invoke "ipa-replica-install" I get this error:<br>
ipa : ERROR Could not resolve hostname <b>hostname.mydoma.in</b>
using DNS. Clients may not function properly. Please check your
DNS setup. (Note that this check queries IPA DNS directly and
ignores /etc/hosts.)<br>
LOG:<br>
2016-10-26T12:14:39Z DEBUG Search DNS server <b>hostname.mydoma.in</b>
(['2a01:f11:1:1::1', '2a01:f11:1:1::1', '2a01:f11:1:1::1']) for <b>hostname.mydoma.in</b><br>

Can you check with dig or host command if the hostname is really
resolvable on that machine? do you have proper resolver in
/etc/resolv.conf?<br>

<b>hostname.mydoma.in</b> is actually the DNS entry for the old
FreeIPA server, which actually resolves, but only to an IPv6
address of course.<br>
I can continue the installation though by entering "yes".<br>
<br>
I then get asked:<br>
Enter the IP address to use, or press Enter to finish.<br>
Please provide the IP address to be used for this host name:<br>
<br>
When I enter the IPv6 address of the new replica host it doesn't
accept but infinitely asks this question instead.<br>

<br>
Have you pressed enter twice? It should end prompt and continue with
installation<br>

Honestly, I can't see what I might have done wrong.<br>
Old FreeIPA has hostname is in sync forward and reverse record.<br>
New FreeIPA host as well has hostname that symmetrically resolves,
even though the hostname is using another second level domain.<br>
<br>
Any hints?<br>
