DNS and host plugin does not work well with domain names ending with dot. host plugin creates a record with two fqdn attributes when such hostname is created which then has to be manually fixed. DNS plugin handled zones with and without trailing dot as two distinct zones, which may lead to issues when both zones are created. This patch sanitizes approach to FQDNs in both DNS and host plugin. Hostnames are now always normalized to the form without trailing dot as this form did not work before and it would keep hostname form consistent without changes in our server/client enrollment process. As DNS zones always worked in both forms this patch rather makes sure that the plugin works with both forms of one zone and prevents creating 2 identical zones with just different format. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2420
IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
