Description

The dnscmd DNS provider for Windows doesn't support PTR records as it's hard to determine the appropriate zone. See https://github.com/theforeman/smart-proxy/pull/127/files#r8814653 for a bit more info.

Here's some code I didn't include in the merge as it was commented out:

+          # zone = nil
+          # msg = "Added reverse DNS entry #{@value} => #{@fqdn}" 
+          # data = @value.split(".")
+          # if data[3].eql?("10")
+          #   zone = "10.in-addr.arpa" 
+          # end
+          # return nil if zone.nil?
+          # cmd = "/RecordAdd #{zone} #{@value}. PTR #{@fqdn}." 
+          # execute(cmd, msg)
+          return true

Hi,

it seems that this is also a problem when provisioning SLES hosts. We switched from nsupdate to dnscmd since we use scavenging on windows dns server. When deploying a SLES host with dnscmd, the host has no hostname set. Using nsupdate this works fine. I guess it has something to do with the missing PTR record? Deploying CentOS with dnscmd works fine.
