Description Philipp Hahn univentionstaff 2013-11-19 12:42:42 CET
When adding a new PTR RR the input filed is lables as "Adresse (*)" - what actually is expected there is the reverse-prefix.
For a class-C-network entering the octet is somehow guessable, but for class-A and B networks the next question is, if I as a user have to do the reversal or if UDM will do it.

Currently the syntax is a simple syntax=univention.admin.syntax.string, which allows to create invalid DNS entries.

Almost every else we hide the gory details of DNS zones from the user.

1. The input field should be restricted to valid IPv[46] addresses in forward-notation, from which the right "name" is calculated.
2. It should be pre-filled with the right value determined from the containing reverse zone when creating a new entry.
3. A helpful long_description should be added.

This issue has been filed against UCS 3. UCS 3 is out of the normal maintenance and many UCS components have vastly changed in UCS 4.

If this issue is still valid, please change the version to a newer UCS version otherwise this issue will be automatically closed in the next weeks.
