Thanks Carlos for stressing this! Also YaST - the networking or hostname module? - should inform the user in the same way and point to the SUSE documentation if .local gets used as domain name. @YaST maintainers: Don't we have such a warning already? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

We do have a warning, but it is not AD-specific: "It's not recommended to use .local as domainname due to Multicast DNS. Use it at your own risk?" https://github.com/yast/yast-network/blob/0492d77a7e6afdfb5e1830fd6cea242901...

Carlos, in which context did you expect a warning? Maybe we only display it in some use cases.

Thanks Martin. My main intention was to ensure we cover the .local domain name on the network configuration level too. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
