Hi
I am trying to join a Windows 7 system to a FreeIPA domain/realm [
mydomain.net] rather
than being a member of workgroup. So i have added a SRV record to the dnszone
[
mydomain.net]
DNS Resource Records:
mydomain.net.
Record name Record Type Data
....
....
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs SRV 0 100 389
idm.mydomain.net.

I get the desired SRV record by digging the LDAP domain
# dig SRV
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain.net.

However, when i try to join the domain, i encounter following error:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate
a domain controller for domain "mydomain.net":
The query was for the SRV record for
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain.net
The following domain controllers were identified by the query:
idm.mydomain.net
However no domain controllers could be contacted.
Common causes of this error include:
- Host (A) or (AAAA) records that map the names of the domain controllers to their IP
addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.
- Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not
running.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The A record for the domain controller
mydomain.net is resolved correctly as can be seen
from the output of dig.
I can confirm domain controller is running and is connected to the network.
Although, it is an Windows 7 issue, i just like to know shall i have to add some more
configuration in FreeIPA/LDAP side ?
