Hi Alexander, Thanks for the quick answer. As I am forced to use a non-email-product to write emails, please consider the following as "quoted properly" - i did my very best ;)

This is always true if you decided to implement a certain thing on more then one instance. As you might already guessed, stuck is the situation I am in right now with thousands of clients deployed. We're stuck with centos ~7.6, where this check wasn't enforced to our environment or with continuously patching the package on our local mirrors. >Another problem is that use of single label setup implies that you own >DNS TLD domain for it.

So we strongly discourage that. I totally get your point here. Because as thinking of the main driver into this, I'd rather expect a wizard which denies this option, but a proper work around using power shell or regedit. So from your point of you is patching the util.py the only way left to continue using your very own top level domain in isolated and non public environments?
