We've set up an ipa-server without DNS, using an /etc/hosts file,
as was suggested in an older thread:
https://www.mail-archive.com/freeipa-users@lists.fedorahosted.org/msg1099...
There's no DNS at all available, and /etc/nsswitch contains the
defaults ("hosts: files dns myhostname", but it's the same if I
change that to just "hosts: files" and remove /etc/rsolv.conf).
Ipa commands all take 30 seconds, but fine eventually. E.g.
$ ipa user-find --all
Strace shows that the process is sending a request to the DNS port
on the ip address configured in /etc/resolv.conf, or 127.0.0.1 if
that file does not exist. he conents of nsswitch.conf are
ignored.
So, how can this be fixed? Do we have to set up DNS to run the
ipa-server?
