NACK,
not all IPA server are necessarily also a DNS server.
Specifying a server may make the code try to reach a server that
doesn't host a DNS instance.

I see 2 possibilities here.
Try once with the server explicitly and if it fails fallback to let
nsupdate find the server from the SOA record.
Or always let nsupdate find the SOA record and try to fallback to
explicit server if that fails.

Simo.
