Hello,

I have an odd issue that just cropped up... I've been using FreeIPA for the 
past two or three months. I'm using it both for user/group membership as well 
as for internal DNS.

Any time I try to add an A record with the "Create reverse" option checked, I 
see the "waiting" message for about 30 seconds, then I get an error message 
that the reverse record could not be created.

Here's an example:

Forward Lookup Zone:
company.com

Reverse Lookup Zones:
10.16.172.in-addr.arpa.
100.16.172.in-addr.arpa.
101.16.172.in-addr.arpa.
11.16.172.in-addr.arpa.
12.16.172.in-addr.arpa.

Let's say I go to add an A record for "test-record" in the company.com forward 
lookup zone:

A -> 172.16.100.123

I see the "Waiting" message for roughly 30 seconds, followed by this error 
message:

"Cannot create reverse record for "172.16.100.123": No answers could be found 
in the specified lifetime for DNS reverse zone 123.100.16.172.in-addr.arpa."

It looks like FreeIPA is appending 123 to the zone name 
(123.100.16.172.in-addr.arpa.) when it should be trying to create the PTR 
record in 100.16.172.in-addr.arpa.

This only happens with some of the Reverse Lookup Zones - it doesn't occur 
consistently across all zones.

For example, I just tried creating a second entry for "test-record2" in 
company.com:

A -> 172.16.10.124 (PTR should be in 10.16.172.in-addr.arpa.)

Both the A record and PTR record get created successfully.

Does anyone happen to have any thoughts as to why this may be happening?

I've been considering deleting the 100.16.172.in-addr.arpa. zone and recreating 
it, but I have a few dozen records and would prefer to not have to create them 
again.

Thanks in advance!
