Fish the entries?  Can you elaborate on that a bit more?

Since FreeIPA auto-builds txt records and what not for client machines...How did you do that?

Or did you not utilize that?

You can, but you need to add the DNS entries that FreeIPA adds to its domain to your DNS server.

What I did was install FreeIPA in a test environment and fish the entries from there.

I know I have sent in multiple emails, but we are trying to deploy FreeIPA correctly.  However I am getting asked to find out some other details.  

Can FreeIPA survive w/o DNS?  We would like to implement FreeIPA and still be able to use the SSH, sudo, selinux, LDAP & krb5.  

We are moving to AWS and management is afraid that we will have to maintain multiple sets of DNS.  And that if FreeIPA is the focal point for all servers and god for bid it crashes, there goes our whole environment.  They would like to put the zone in R53 and have that handle ALL the records.  If we do go through with not installing DNS w/ FreeIPA will we be shooting ourselves in the foot?  

I know that FreeIPA relies heavily on DNS and I have seen multiple conversations regarding not to do this, but is this somewhere in the best practices?

I found this thread from 2015 but I don't think it applies anymore:



The problem is that we have 30 domains that we want to use in R53 and he wants to bypass FreeIPA for doing DNS other than for auth and sudo and ldap.  Could we put entries in the /etc/hosts file to point to the FreeIPA servers?  I feel like this might work and might be more problematic down the line.

Andrew
