#1923 named fails to start after installing ipa server when short hostname preceeds fqdn in /etc/hosts.
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by dpal.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=742875

Description of problem:
After installing ipa-server with --setup-dns, if you have the short hostname ahead of fqdn in /etc/hosts, named fails to start. sssd tries to do a GSSAPI auth with the short hostname and does not find its respective principal in kerberos. Setting `hostname -s` at the end solves this issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sssd-1.5.1-53.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure your /etc/hosts as 
[root@jetfire ]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
2620:52:0:41c9:5054:ff:fea8:b669    jetfire jetfire.lab.eng.pnq.redhat.com

2. Install ipa-server
<snip>
Configuring named:
  [1/9]: adding DNS container
  [2/9]: setting up our zone
  [3/9]: setting up reverse zone
  [4/9]: setting up our own record
  [5/9]: setting up kerberos principal
  [6/9]: setting up named.conf
  [7/9]: restarting named
named service failed to start              <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
  [8/9]: configuring named to start on boot
  [9/9]: changing resolv.conf to point to ourselves
done configuring named.
</snip>

3. service named resart
# service named restart
Stopping named:                                            [  OK  ]
Starting named:                                            [FAILED]


Actual results: named fails to start. named starts successfully when I set the fqdn followed by `hostname -s` in /etc/hosts.


Expected results: named should start successfully even when `hostname -s` preceeds fqdn in /etc/hosts. In RHEL6.2 the default /etc/hosts looks like:
# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6

So, it would be quite common for users to add `hostname -s` ahead of fqdn as that is how we specify for localhost.
