Bug #2720
Updated by Dominic Cleal about 9 years ago
Docs http://theforeman.org/manuals/1.2/index.html part 4.3.2 - DNS section says this: > The dns_server option is used if the Smart-Proxy is not located on the same physical host as the DNS server. If it is not specified then localhost is presumed. The problem is that the default value _localhost_ breaks the auto-detection logic inside nsupdate. *This prevents smart-proxy from updating records on multiple DNS servers.* See manual page for nsupdate - section INPUT FORMAT: > server {servername} [port] > > Sends all dynamic update requests to the name server servername. When no server statement is provided, nsupdate will send updates to the master server of the correct zone. The MNAME field of that zone's SOA record will identify the master server for that zone. port is the port number on servername where the dynamic update requests get sent. If no port number is specified, the default DNS port number of 53 is used. > IMHO there should not be any default value and _server_ statement should be omitted by default.
