#5591 FreeIPA ipa-client-install error: Hostname (computer.company.lan) does not have A/AAAA record.
Closed: Fixed Opened by khartahk.

When I try to add a Fedora 23 installed notebook to our corporate IPA server I get this error. I'm connected via VPN PPTP but its similar setup to our servers that are also connected via OpenVPN.

The Ipa server is auto discovered and the domain and realm are automaticaly set.


I've attached the full error message.

pspacek: the root cause is that we are parsing text output from "ip addr" command instead of getting IP addresses over some API. Let me repeat that we should get python-netifaces and use that.

i.e.: requires to add new dependency

related: #5501

Correct, this will require the new python-netifaces dependency. Just for the record, it is in Fedora already.
